I'm staring at the /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf but I'm somewhat at loss how to read it, all I want is the default read community (which used to be 'public')
relevant part of snmpd.conf is: ----- # First, map the community name "public" into a "security name" # sec.name source community com2sec notConfigUser default public #### # Second, map the security name into a group name: # groupName securityModel securityName group notConfigGroup v1 notConfigUser group notConfigGroup v2c notConfigUser #### # Third, create a view for us to let the group have rights to: # name incl/excl subtree mask(optional) view systemview included system #### # Finally, grant the group read-only access to the systemview view. # group context sec.model sec.level prefix read write notif access notConfigGroup "" any noauth exact systemview none none ----- so, which is the string I need to use instead of 'public' ? 'systemview' ? 'com2sec' ? ? I've tried most of above strings with no success so far...
