| programs and scripts when a trap has been received. |
| (see snmptrapd.conf(5)) |
| - More configuration files have been created and can be used to |
| specify defaults and configuration information to the various |
| applications. Run each command with -H to see what it understands. |
| (see snmp_config(5), snmpd.conf(5), snmp.conf(5), snmptrapd.conf(5)) |
| - The configuration file parser looks in ~/.snmp by default as |
| well, allowing each user to have his/her own setup files for the |
| various applications. |
| - The mib parser supports a variety of options dictating how |
| strictly it parses mib files. |
| (see snmpcmd.1 on "-P") |
| - Debugging output with the -D flag now accepts a list of |
| debugging information types to print. |

| |
| Copyright: |
| - Simplification. |
| |
| *3.5* |
| |
| New: |

| Therefore, the "community" snmpd.conf parameter no longer |
| exists. See the snmpd.conf file for how to control access via |

| - The header file #defines have changed. You may have to compile |
| third party applications with -DCMU_COMPATIBLE (like perl-SNMP <= V1.7). |
| - The parser is more strict about unlinked OIDs and end-of-comment |
| conditions. You may see problems in a few broken mibs that used |
| to parse ok with the older parser. |
| |

| - snmptrap sends to the correct default port of 162 again. |
| |
| Ports: |
| - irix 6.2 support improved. |
| - openbsd. |
| - the host resources mib compiles on Solaris. |
| |
| *3.3.1* |
| |
| New: |
| - "make install" installs the library and header files. |
| |
| Fixes: |
| - compilation on many architectures (sunos for example). |
| - snmptrapd doesn't exit if v2party files don't exist. |
| - host resources works a bit better (ie, it compiles) under solaris. |
| |
| |
| *3.3* |
| |
| Path changes: |
| - the default paths to the installed mibs and snmpd.conf file have |
| changed to /usr/local/share/snmp (set differently using --datadir). |
| - the default path of the snmpd and snmptrapd have changed to |
| /usr/local/sbin (set differently using --sbindir). |
| |
| New: |

| - aix 4.1.5. |
| - fixes for hpux 10.20. |

| |
| Fixes: |
| - too numerous to mention. |
| |
| *3.2* |
| |
| New: |
| - Top level of the mib parser has been restructured |
| - no longer reads 'mib.txt' |
| - no longer reads everything (MIBS/MIBDIRS) |
| - reads import clauses to load other required modules |

| agent/mibgroup subdirectory for details. Modules are added and/or |
| removed via configure options. |
