Hi guys,

I am developing a web-based tool in PHP to ask information to MT. We have several Nagios server checking my ISP network.
We usually set SNMP version 1, which is very unsecure. In this new application I realize that PHP support AES encryption in the snmpget request.
Is is posible that ros let choose between DES and AES encription?
Sincerely,
Santiago

Will look into it. Maybe for version 7.x no promises.

Also, since you are now using v1 requests, any security upgrade would be an improvement. Even DES.

That's right.
If I update all my devices (>1000) into SNMPv3 with DES, it would wonderfull. However, it is a hard task, but necessary.

you can try AES using this 6.16 RC

Thanks, I will test.

Using 6.18 with snmpv3 and aes for some weeks now ... no problems. it is stable even if queried a lot.
