2005-07-13
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Product : Fedora Core 4
Name : net-snmp
Version : 5.2.1.2
Release : fc4.1
Summary : A collection of SNMP protocol tools and libraries.
Description :
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol used for network management. The NET-SNMP project includes various SNMP tools: an extensible agent, an SNMP library, tools for requesting or setting information from SNMP agents, tools for generating and handling SNMP traps, a version of the netstat command which uses SNMP, and a Tk/Perl mib browser. This package contains the snmpd and snmptrapd daemons, documentation, etc.

You will probably also want to install the net-snmp-utils package, which contains NET-SNMP utilities.

Building option:
--without tcp_wrappers : disable tcp_wrappers support



---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

A security vulnerability has been found in Net-SNMP releases that could allow a denial of service attack against Net-SNMP agent"s which have opened a stream based protocol (EG, TCP but not UDP; it should be noted that Net-SNMP does not by default open a TCP port).
