Yes. The access control for receiving notifications (by snmptrapd) is handled in the file 'snmptrapd.conf''. The access control for processing information requests (by snmpd) is handled in the file 'snmpd.conf''. Any settings placed in snmptrapd.conf will not affect snmpd (and hence GET/SET requests) Any settings placed in snmpd.conf will not affect snmptrapd (and hence notifications). Plus the access directives are different anyway. A user configured for receiving traps will not be able to do GET or SET operations (unless you explicitly configure this too). > Also can one change the security modes by calling the net-snmp > library api(s)? Sorry - I don't understand the question.
