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 access control settings.

SYSTEM INFORMATION

   System Group
       setSerialNo
	      This directive is used to implement the advisory lock object snmpSetSerialNo.

       psyslocation / psyscontact / psysname
	      These  directives  are used to retain dynamically configured system settings.  They will be overridden by the corresponding sysLoca-
	      tion, sysContact and sysName directives.

ACTIVE MONITORING

   Notification Handling
       pauthtrapenable
	      This directive is used to retain the dynamically configured setting of  whether  the  agent  should  generate  authenticationFailure
	      traps.  It will be overridden by the corresponding authtrapenable directive.

       snmpNotify*Table

       targetAddr / targetParams
	      These directives are used to retain dynamically configured notification 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 disman/event-mib implementation.

   DisMan Schedule MIB
       _schedTable
	      This directive is used to retain dynamically configured scheduled events.

EXTENDING AGENT FUNCTIONALITY

   Arbitrary Extension Commands
       extend-sh

       exec2 / sh2 / execFix2
	      These  directives  were  defined by analogy with equivalent directives in the previous ucd-snmp/extensible implementation.  They are
	      deprecated, and should not be used.
