Hi,
I tried to create a gitlab account to enter this bug, but it refuses my
credit card verification step. Sorry for the email, but I wanted to
report before I forget the details.
The problem is simple: Changes to the SNMP Users Table are not accepted
until "OK" is pressed, which can lead to a confusing error message. For
example:
1. This is a valid users table.
Valid Table
2. This is an error condition, because two user names are identical AND
have the same authentication model.
User Table 2
3. So I press Cancel then try again. This time, I delete the second
row. Then I change the auth model to SHA1 (which had conflicted with
the deleted row). The error message appears again, and the "Duplicate
key" message is now illogical/confusing, because there is only one row.
Users Table 3
Of course, the work-around is to delete the second row, then press OK
(which closes the dialog), then go back in to change the auth model.
But this is not intuitive. The "fix" is to have the dialog alter its
copy of the original table during the editing session, so that data
validation occurs on the contents of the displayed table.
I hope that's helpful. Thanks!
