Dear net-snmp-coders,

 

I have a problem when query IPv6 enabled snmpd remotely.

 

*       I added rwcommunity6 directive in /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
*       I started snmpd with 'udp:161, udp6:161' options
*       I can query successfully using both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses
locally.

 

But when I query remotely from a machine different than where snmpd is
running, I got "Unknown host" if using IPv6 address. On the other hand,
I can still use IPv4 address to get responses remotely.

 

[EMAIL PROTECTED] src]$ snmpwalk 10.1 sysUpTime

SNMPv2-MIB::sysUpTime.0 = Timeticks: (22494) 0:03:44.94

 

[EMAIL PROTECTED] src]$ snmpwalk udp6:'[fe80::200:50ff:fe3d:785d]':161
sysUpTime

snmpwalk: Unknown host (udp6:[fe80::200:50ff:fe3d:785d]:161)

 

I can ping the same IPv6 address with -I option though:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] src]$ ping6 fe80::200:50ff:fe3d:785d -I eth1

PING fe80::200:50ff:fe3d:785d(fe80::200:50ff:fe3d:785d) from
fe80::214:22ff:fe7c:a2c5 eth1: 56 data bytes

64 bytes from fe80::200:50ff:fe3d:785d: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.144 ms

 

snmpwalk running on the remote machine doesn't have IPv6 enabled, but I
don't think it is needed, right? What was missing then?

 

Thanks for your support.
