Strange snmp issue

Hi,

If I do a snmpwalk on our IDSM-2 blade, I can read the SNMP write string, this seems a bit insecure to me.

Is this normal behavior?

Kind regards,

Michael

It depends how are you querying the MIB. Some MIB lets you know the write string. Following link may help you

How are you reading it? In a packet capture?

No just a snmp-walk from a linux host and then grep on the snmp string.
