Remarks

remote_engine_time is used by SNMPv3 authentication to ensure timeliness of requests, and avoid replay attacks.

The value of remote_engine_time is provided as what is expected to be the current value of the remote engine clock based on a cached time differential between the remote engine clock and the local engine time obtained during the discovery process (see discover).

This property is used in conjunction with remote_engine_boots. Please refer to the remote_engine_boots property and the discover method for more information.
