    DESCRIPTION
        "Upon initialization, or upon creation of a row containing an
    object of this type, and after any successful SET of this value, a
    GET of this value returns 'y' where y = g^xa MOD p, and where g is
    the base from usmDHParameters, p is the prime from
    usmDHParameters, and xa is a new random integer selected by the
    agent in the interval 2^(l-1) <= xa < 2^l < p-1.  'l' is the
    optional privateValueLength from usmDHParameters in bits.  If 'l'
    is omitted, then xa (and xr below) is selected in the interval 0
    <= xa < p-1.  y is expressed as an OCTET STRING 'PV' of length 'k'
    which satisfies

k
        y =  SUM   2^(8(k-i)) PV'i
             i=1

where PV1,...,PVk are the octets of PV from first to last, and
        where PV1 <> 0.

A successful SET consists of the value 'y' expressed as an OCTET
    STRING as above concatenated with the value 'z'(expressed as an
    OCTET STRING in the same manner as y) where z = g^xr MOD p, where
    g, p and l are as above, and where xr is a new random integer
    selected by the manager in the interval 2^(l-1) <= xr < 2^l <
    p-1. A SET to an object of this type will fail with the error
    wrongValue if the current 'y' does not match the 'y' portion of
    the value of the varbind for the object. (E.g. GET yout, SET
    concat(yin, z), yout <> yin).

Note that the private values xa and xr are never transmitted from
    manager to device or vice versa, only the values y and z.
    Obviously, these values must be retained until a successful SET on
    the associated object.

The shared secret 'sk' is calculated at the agent as sk = z^xa MOD
    p, and at the manager as sk = y^xr MOD p.

Each object definition of this type MUST describe how to map from
    the shared secret 'sk' to the operational key value used by the
    protocols and operations related to the object.  In general, if n
    bits of key are required, the author suggests using the n
    right-most bits of the shared secret as the operational key value."

    some out of band method, such as the device's configuration file.

The manager calculates this value in the same manner and using the
    same parameter set as the agent does.  E.g. it selects a random
    number 'r', calculates y = g^r mod p and provides 'y' as the
    public number expressed as an OCTET STRING.  See
    usmDHKickstartMyPublic for details.

When this object is set with a valid value during initialization,
    a row is created in the usmUserTable with the following values:

    usmUserName                 [value of usmDHKickstartSecurityName]

A shared secret 'sk' is calculated at the agent as sk =
    mgrPublic^r mod p where r is the agents random number and p is the
    DH prime from the common parameters.  The underlying privacy key
    for this row is derived from sk by applying the key derivation
    function PBKDF2 defined in PKCS#5v2.0 with a salt of 0xd1310ba6,
    and iterationCount of 500, a keyLength of 16 (for
    usmDESPrivProtocol), and a prf (pseudo random function) of
    'id-hmacWithSHA1'.  The underlying authentication key for this row
    is derived from sk by applying the key derivation function PBKDF2
    with a salt of 0x98dfb5ac , an interation count of 500, a
    keyLength of 16 (for usmHMAC5AuthProtocol), and a prf of
    'id-hmacWithSHA1'.  Note: The salts are the first two words in the
    ks0 [key schedule 0] of the BLOWFISH cipher from 'Applied
    Cryptography' by Bruce Schnier - they could be any relatively
    random string of bits.

The manager can use its knowledge of its own random number and the
    agent's public value to kickstart its access to the agent in a
    secure manner.  Note that the security of this approach is
    directly related to the strength of the authorization security of
    the out of band provisioning of the managers public value
    (e.g. the configuration file), but is not dependent at all on the
    strength of the confidentiality of the out of band provisioning
    data."
