A question about snmp community strings
1998-11-25 16:14:37
All,
I am trying to test snmp access to one of our customer routers. To test
I used the "snmpwalk -c " command but I can't seem to get snmp replies. I
put a sniffer on the ring where my nms server is and captured the snmp data
going to this router. What I found is that the community string the
sniffer captured and the community string I used on the command line were
different. As an example if the community string was netview$monitor and
I typed "snmpwalk -c netview$monitor routeripaddress" then the sniffer
capture would display the community string of "netview" it would just
drop everything after the $. Is the $ a special character that cannot be
used in community strings? If this is not a limitation
thanks,
