I've always wondered how this can work. Isn't SNMP
encapsulated in IP? If our modems are manipulable
via SNMP doesn't that imply that they themselves have
IP addrs distinct from our own? Can I ping my modem?
Or have they been jiggered to only respond to SNMP
traffic that's special in some way, like only appearing
on the cable side, or only on some special frequency...?
