NAME

       snmp.conf - snmp configuration file for cups

DESCRIPTION

       The  snmp.conf file configures how the standard CUPS network backends (http, https, ipp, ipps, lpd, snmp, and socket) access printer infor-
       mation using SNMPv1 and is normally located in the /etc/cups directory.	Each line in the file can be a configuration  directive,  a  blank
       line, or a comment. Comment lines start with the # character.

       The Community and DebugLevel directives are used by all backends. The remainder apply only to the SNMP backend - cups-snmp(8).

DIRECTIVES

       The following directives are understood by the CUPS network backends:

       Address @IF(name)

       Address @LOCAL

       Address address
	    Sends SNMP broadcast queries (for discovery) to the specified address(es).	There is no default for the broadcast address.

       Community name
	    Specifies the community name to use.  Only a single community name may be specified.  The default community name is "public".

       DebugLevel number
	    Specifies  the  logging  level from 0 (none) to 3 (everything).  Typically only used for debugging (thus the name).  The default debug
	    level is 0.

       DeviceURI "regular expression" device-uri [... device-uri]
	    Specifies one or more device URIs that should be used for a given make and model string.  The regular expression is used to match  the
	    detected  make  and  model,  and  the  device  URI	strings must be of the form "scheme://%s[:port]/[path]", where "%s" represents the
	    detected address or hostname.  There are no default device URI matching rules.

       HostNameLookups on

       HostNameLookups off
	    Specifies whether the addresses of printers should be converted to hostnames or left as numeric IP addresses.  The default is "off".

       MaxRunTime seconds
	    Specifies the maximum number of seconds that the SNMP backend will scan the network for printers.  The default is 120 seconds (2  min-
	    utes).
