snmpd.comm(SFF)
snmpd.comm --
SNMP communities file
Description
The /etc/snmpd.comm file contains the definitions
for the communities which will be supported by the
SNMP agent/server daemon,
snmpd(ADMN).
The file contains lines which consist of three items: a
session or community name, an IP address in dot
notation, and the privileges to be associated with that
community and IP address pair. The privileges
should be one of READ, WRITE, or
NONE. NONE is used to lock out
specific communities or hosts. Lines which begin with
``#'' are ignored.
The IP address ``0.0.0.0'' is used to denote a
wild card, meaning any host. Hence, it must be used with
care. As a safety precaution, never assign WRITE
privileges to entries using a wild card IP address.
Examples
test1 128.212.64.99 READ
test2 128.212.64.17 WRITE
test3 128.212.64.15 READ
test4 0.0.0.0 READ
public 0.0.0.0 READ
interop 0.0.0.0 READ
