Authenticating Requests Received Over TCP/IP
•
ACCESS or zagInPfAccess specifies the SNMP operations authorized for each
community: READONLY or READWRITE.
The default authentication table entry is named $
agent-process
.#DEFAULT and has
the following attribute values associated with it (the SNMP agent process is $ZSNMP):
PROFILE $ZSNMP.#DEFAULT, COMMUNITY public
HOSTADDR 0.0.0.0, ACCESS READONLY
You must add an authentication table entry for each community (other than “public”)
from which the SNMP agent will be receiving SNMP requests.
Unless you stop or alter the default authentication table entry, the SNMP agent
continues to accept incoming Get and GetNext requests from any SNMP manager
belonging to the “public” community, regardless of other table entries you define to
tighten security.
