/**
 * This engine is conformant with the RFC 2571. It is the main object within an SNMP entity (agent, manager...). 
 * To an engine is associated an {@link SnmpEngineId}.
 * Engine instantiation is based on a factory {@link com.sun.jmx.snmp.SnmpEngineFactory  SnmpEngineFactory}.
 * When an <CODE> SnmpEngine </CODE> is created, a User based Security Model (USM) is initialized. The security configuration is located in a text file.
 * The text file is read when the engine is created. 
 * <p>Note that the engine is not used when the agent is SNMPv1/SNMPv2 only.
<P> The USM configuration text file is remotely updatable using the USM Mib.</P>
<P> User that are configured in the Usm text file are nonVolatile. </P>
<P> Usm Mib userEntry supported storage type values are : volatile or nonVolatile only. Other values are rejected and a wrongValue is returned) </P>
<ul>
<li> volatile means that user entry is not flushed in security file </li>
<li> nonVolatile means that user entry is flushed in security file </li>
<li> If a nonVolatile row is set to be volatile, it will be not flushed in the file </li>
<li>If a volatile row created from the UsmMib is set to nonVolatile, it will be flushed in the file (if the file exist and is writable otherwise an inconsistentValue is returned)</li>
