Pre-release 1 of Net-SNMP 5.2 is now available.
This file contains major changes in released revisions. Please read
the ChangeLog file for a more detailed listing of changes/bug fixes.
*5.2*
New:
For the security parnoid (EG, like Wes):
- Insecure versions of SNMP may be completely disable at compile time.
(configure using one or both of --disable-snmpv1 --disable-snmpv2c)
- Less secure versions of SNMPv3 authentication and encryption
algorithms may be completely disable at compile time.
(configure using one or both of --disable-des --disable-md5)
(This requires you have OpenSSL to support SHA1 and AES instead)
- Diffie-Helman key negotianion (perfect-forward-secrecy)
(RFC2786) has been implemented in both the agent and in snmpusm.
snmptrapd:
- Embedded perl support for trap handlers (much faster).
(configure --with-embedded-perl and run 'perldoc
NetSNMP::TrapReceiver')
- the snmptrapd usmUser table can be controlled through SNMP & AgentX
(the snmptrapd MIBs are registered under the"snmptrapd" SNMPv3 context)
agent:
- community strings can be mapped to individual SNMPv3 contexts
(see the snmpd.conf manual on "com2sec").
- AgentX should work properly with SNMPv3 contexts now.
- experimental implementation of DisMan Remote Operations MIB groups
mib2c:
- new configuration file, mib2c.mfd.conf (aka MIBs for Dummies, or MFD)
to reduce the SNMP knowledge needed do develop mib modules.
- new configuratoin file, mib2c.iterate2.conf
Ports:
- new experimental tables/rewrites for Linux, including:
ifTable, ifXTable, inetCidrRouteTable, ipCidrRouteTable,
ipAddressTable, ipSystemStatsTable, usmDHParameters,
usmDHUserKeyTable, ipNetToPhysicalTable
Fixes:
- AgentX memory leak on sets
