Thanks for the link
I have a basic question. Even if I install snmp daemon (snmpd.lrp) and is running on the LRP firewall, Should I change the settings SNMP_BLOCK =YES to NO I thought its use is to Block all SNMP traffic going through the firewall. If I am only interested in a snmp daemon running on the firewall itself which needs to be monitored from an outside network, should I need it. and what is SNMP_MANAGER. Should I type the external ip address of the firewall itself. (Please correct me if I am wrong) While going through the mailing list archives, I came accross come contradictary postings like asking to enable EXTERN_TCP_PORTS="0/0_snmp" EXTERN_UDP_PORTS="0/0_snmp" and some one was saying that as SNMP is a UDP protocol stuff, only EXTERN_UDP_PORTS entry is only required. Next is regarding the snmpd.conf I am hearing people asking us to change the snmp community string "public" to some other strings which is not easily guessable. For that if I change all references of public in snmpd.conf to something is enough ? How can I add a private read only community string in snmpd.conf ? any examples?
