HI all, Sorry for the cross posting, but I have seen comments regarding netsnmp and php on these lists and I am not sure if all are on all mailiglists. Again sorry.
At the URL: http://www.lisanza.net/php-snmp/php-netsnmpv3.patch.txt one can find a patch that would add SNMPv3 support to the PHP language and makes it work with NET-SNMP 5.0.x. (It includes the previously announced patch) SNMPv3 adds authentication and privace (security) to SNMP and is advised to be used over SNMPv1 if you SNMP agent supports it. No documentation is yet available, but in short the conversion from SNMPv1 to SNMPv3 is as follows. Change the snmp- prefix in to snmpv3. Rpleace the community string parameter by the following 6 parameters: <security name>, <security level>, <auth protocol>, <auth passphrase>, <privacy protocol> and <privacy passphrase> (for now more information can be found in the net-snmp man page snmpcmd) Harrie Internet Management Consulting mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.lisanza.net/ -------------------------------------------------------------------- Author of MOD-SNMP, enabling SNMP management the Apache HTTP server -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
