NAME
       snmp.conf - configuration file for the Net-SNMP applications

SYNOPSIS
       snmp.conf

DESCRIPTION
       The  file  snmp.conf  defines  how  the	Net-SNMP applications operate.
       Tokens that can be put in the file are described in the DIRECTIVES sec‐
       tion below.

       If  you	are  storing  sensitive	 information,  such as passphrases, in
       snmp.conf, make sure you make the file readable only by user.

       Before modifying snmp.conf, make sure to read the snmp_config(4) manual
       page,  which describes the effects of the Net-SNMP configuration files,
       where they are located, and how they all work together.

DIRECTIVES
       The snmp.conf file supports the following directives:

       mibdirs (mib-dirs| +mib-dirs)

	   Look for text MIBs to parse in the colon-separated list of directo‐
	   ries.  If  the directive value starts with a plus sign, it prepends
	   this list to the default directory list compiled into the  applica‐
	   tion.  Note	that the value specified here can be overridden by the
	   MIBDIRS environment variable.

       mibs (mib-tokens| +mib-tokens)

	   Specifies a colon-separated list of MIB tokens that represent  tex‐
	   tual	 MIB  files  that are to be found and parsed. If the directive
	   value starts with a plus sign, it prepends this list to the default
	   MIB	token  list compiled into the application. The special keyword
	   of ALL forces all MIBs files found to be read. Note that the	 value
	   specified here can be overridden by the MIBS environment variable.

       mibfile file

	   Specifies  a	 text  MIB  file to read and parse, in addition to the
	   list read from the MIBs token. Note that the value  specified  here
	   can be overridden by the MIBFILES environment variable.

       persistentDir directory

	   The directory where snmpd and snmptrapd store their persistent data
	   files.

       defaultPort port

	   The default port number that	 all  SNMP  applications  and  daemons
	   should use.

       defVersion ( 1 | 2c | 3 )

	   The default SNMP version to use. The default value is 3.

       defCommunity string

	   The default SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c community string to use. The default
	   value is the empty string, "".

       defSecurityName string

	   The default SNMPv3 USM security name you want  to  use  for	SNMPv3
	   requests.

       defContext string

	   The default SNMPv3 context name you want to use.

       defPassphrase string
       defAuthPassphrase string
       defPrivPassphrase string

	   The	default	 SNMPv3	 USM passphrase(s) to use. If it is specified,
	   defPassphrase is used for  both  authentication  and	 privacy  pass
	   phrases.

       defAuthType MD5 | SHA

	   The	SNMPv3	USM  authentication  type to use. The default value is
	   MD5.

       defPrivType DES

	   The SNMPv3 USM privacy type to use. Currently, DES is the only pos‐
	   sible value.

       defSecurityLevel noAuthNoPriv | authNoPriv | authPriv

	   The SNMPv3 default security level to use. The default is authPriv.

       showMibErrors ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Determines whether to display text MIB parsing errors when commands
	   are run.

       strictCommentTerm ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Determines whether parsing of MIBs should be strict	about  comment
	   termination. A double hyphen ("--") terminates a comment if this is
	   true. Many MIBs have broken comments in them, hence this option.

       mibAllowUnderline ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Allow underline characters in MIBs (ordinarily illegal).

       mibWarningLevel integerValue

	   Specifies the minimum warning level of the warnings printed by  the
	   MIB parser.

       printNumericEnums ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Equivalent to -Oe.

       printNumericOids ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Equivalent to -On.

       dontBreakdownOids ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Equivalent to -Ob.

       escapeQuotes ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Equivalent to -OE.

       quickPrinting ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Equivalent to -Oq.

       dontPrintUnits ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Equivalent to -OU.

       printHexText ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Equivalent to -OT.

       suffixPrinting ( 0 | 1 | 2 )

	   If  the  value  is  1,  this directive is equivalent to -Os. If the
	   value is 2, it is equivalent to -OS.

       oidOutputFormat ( 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6)

	   Maps -O options as follows:

	   -Os=1
	   -OS=2
	   -Of=3
	   -On=4
	   -Ou=5

	   The value 6 has no matching -O option. It suppresses output.

       extendedIndex ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Equivalent to -OX.

       noRangeCheck ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Disables the validation of  values  that  is	 done  by  snmpset(1M)
	   before issuing the request to the agent. Equivalent to -Ir.

       noDisplayHint ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Disables  the  use of DISPLAY-HINT information when parsing indices
	   and values to set. Equivalent to -Ih.

       dumpPacket ( 1 | yes | true | 0 | no | false )

	   Determines whether commands should dump packets by default.

       doDebugging ( 1 | 0 )

	   Turns on debugging for all applications run if set to 1.

       debugTokens token[,token...]

	   Specifies the debugging tokens that should be displayed.  See  snm‐
	   pcmd(1M) for debugging usage details.
