SNMPD.INTERNAL(5) Net-SNMP SNMPD.INTERNAL(5)
NAME
snmpd.internal - internal configuration of the Net-SNMP agent
DESCRIPTION
The snmpd.conf(5) man page defines the syntax and behaviour of the main
configuration directives that can be used to control the operation of
the Net-SNMP agent, and the management information it provides.
However there are several other configuration directives (many of
which, though not all, start with a leading underscore) that are recog-
nised by the agent. These are typically used to retain configuration
across agent restarts, and are not intended for direct user access.
This man page list these directives, giving a brief indication of where
they are used. For full details - see the relevant source files. If
you can't follow that source, you probably shouldn't be fiddling with
these directives!
AGENT BEHAVIOUR
quit
ACCESS CONTROL
VACM Configuration
vacmView / vacmGroup / vacmAccess
These directives are used to retain dynamically configured ac-
cess control settings.
SYSTEM INFORMATION
System Group
setSerialNo
This directive is used to implement the advisory lock object sn-
mpSetSerialNo.
psyslocation / psyscontact / psysname
These directives are used to retain dynamically configured sys-
tem settings. They will be overridden by the corresponding sys-
Location, sysContact and sysName directives.
ACTIVE MONITORING
Notification Handling
pauthtrapenable
This directive is used to retain the dynamically configured set-
ting of whether the agent should generate authenticationFailure
traps. It will be overridden by the corresponding authtrapen-
able directive.
snmpNotify*Table
targetAddr / targetParams
These directives are used to retain dynamically configured noti-
fication destination settings.
DisMan Event MIB
_mteE*Table, _mteOTable, _mteT*Table
These directives are used to retain dynamically configured
event, object and monitor trigger settings.
mteObjectsTable / mteTriggerTable
These directives are for compatibility with the previous dis-
man/event-mib implementation.
DisMan Schedule MIB
_schedTable
This directive is used to retain dynamically configured sched-
uled events.
EXTENDING AGENT FUNCTIONALITY
Arbitrary Extension Commands
extend-sh
exec2 / sh2 / execFix2
These directives were defined by analogy with equivalent direc-
tives in the previous ucd-snmp/extensible implementation. They
are deprecated, and should not be used.
