I don't think there is any difference between
f6 and f7 as, they say, the lowest order bit
is not used.

>From snmpd.conf comments:

#    The trap mask is in hexidecimal
#    format.  The bits from left to right stand for coldStart trap, warmStart
#    trap, linkDown trap, linkUp trap, authenticationFailure trap,
#    egpNeighborLoss trap, and enterpriseSpecific trap.  The right most bit
#    does not have any meaning.

It appears that a value of f7 would block AuthenticationFailure traps and nothing else. A value of f6 as suggested in the earlier thread would block AuthenticationFailure but would also block Enterprose Specific traps. Does this sound correct? I believe that I am on the right path here.     Scott Bursik Enterprise Systems Management PepsiCo Business Solutions Group (972) 963-1400 scott.bursik AT pbsg DOT com     From: Oliver Bruchhaeuser [mailto:oliver.bruchhaeuser AT de.ibm DOT com] Sent: Wednesday, April 14, 2004 1:03 AM To: nv-l AT lists.us.ibm DOT com Subject: Re: [nv-l] snmpd.conf setting to restrict Authentication Failure Traps
