Team,

It's Regarding SNMP, on the /etc/snmp/conf/snmd.conf we have a below entries...

# grep -i public snmpd.conf

system-group-read-community     public

read-community  public

# grep -i private snmpd.conf

#system-group-write-community    private

#write-community private

My Security Team advised us to Remove any Public or Private group in a snmpd.conf. If i Comment out these entries what are the Significant causes i would see? is that really need to be active?

Please advice....

Howdy, Stranger!
