If you wish not to encript your SNMPv3 packet that is correct. If you are using SNMPv3 without DES you might as well be using SNMPv1/v2c.

Hi Nick

i used your above example but it failed stating authentication error.. I later found out that u have missed -l flag in your snmpwalk example.. the corrected version is down below :

snmpwalk -u username -l authPriv -a MD5 -A yourpass -x DES -X yourkey IPAddress OID value

Cheers,
Anil

Generally you would not require the -x and -X options for a snmpwalk.
All you do is
snmpwalk -v 3 -a md5 -A PASSWORD -l authNoPriv -u MYUSERNAME IP.ADD.RE.SS
