Configuration

SNMP traps, a version of the Unix 'netstat' command using SNMP, and a Tk/ Perl mib browser.

SNMP is configured with community names, OID and user names. The KVM/net supports SNMP v1, v2, and v3. The two versions require different configurations. SNMP v1/v2 requires community, source, object ID and the type of community (read-write, read-only). V3 requires user name.

Important: Check the SNMP configuration before gathering information about KVM/net by SNMP. An unauthorized user can implement different types of attacks to retrieve sensitive information contained in the MIB. By default, the SNMP configuration in KVM/net cannot permit the public community to read SNMP information.
