SNMPv2 to SNMPv3

[Sanjay_S]

Hi All,

I am moving all our checkpoint devices to SNMPv3. I observed that the uptime of the devices will be changes as soon as i change the device to v3. Uptime doesn't match with the monitoring tool and the actual uptime of the device. Anybody else facing the same issue? Any additional changes to do to fix this?

Regards,

How are you verifying this?
What version/JHF level?

[Sanjay_S]

Checking in the Monitoring tool.
Version - R80.10 Take 249

And how do these results compare to the 'uptime' command in expert mode, which would likely be considered the most authoritative?

The uptime in Monitoring tool is always lesser than the uptime in expert mode of the firewall. For example if the firewall is running since 100days(SNMPv2) - MOnitoring tool also shows 100days and i configure SNMPv3 today then the firewall still shows 100days but monitoirng tool shows 1min or 2 mins the time i configured the SNMPv3. Its very wierd but fact. This is not happened with one firewall but with all the checkpoint firewalls.
