Can I create my own Username and Authentication password for SNMP v3 (Bosch camera)?

Question

Can I create my own Username and Authentication password for SNMP v3 (Bosch camera)?

Answer

Changing the "service" is not possible. However, in the RCP doc we can see the following:

... and you can get the payload structure:

  • the first 32bits are for the username:

  • for (Num Descriptor-1): It's "service" and it can not be changed

    • for (Num Descriptor-3): It's empty and it can be programmed

So, when you convert Text to Hex, for example "Rotterdam":

... you can do the following:

To Write (Num Descriptor-1)
It is not possible. Whatever you write, it will not take effect and stays as "service".

To READ (Num Descriptor-1)
/rcp.xml?command=0x0c4f&type=P_OCTET&direction=READ&protocol=TCP&num=1

To Write Rotterdam (Num Descriptor-3)
/rcp.xml?command=0x0c4f&type=P_OCTET&direction=WRITE&protocol=TCP&payload=0x526F7474657264616D00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000002a2a2a2a2a2a2a2a00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000201030000000000000000000000000000000000&num=3

To READ (Num Descriptor-3)
/rcp.xml?command=0x0c4f&type=P_OCTET&direction=READ&protocol=TCP&num=3
