I'd ignore it. Having leaked a few (less than a million, I'm sure) SNMP 'gets' because I fat-fingered a subnet mask, or let a traceroute-based discovery routine go awry, or was just plain curious... -----Original Message----- From: Randy Bush [SMTP:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 1997 9:28 AM To: [email protected] Subject: SNMP probers What do folk do about persistent SNMP probers? I.e. j random clueless sites which keep querying one's backbone router(s). E.g. this morning I get the NOC shift change report with the folk hammering on our routers as if we were stupid enough to use 'public' as the community string. > mae-east Bad community string from 194.168.51.4 > mae-east Bad community string from 193.38.113.216 > mae-west Bad community string from 202.85.254.5 > mae-west Bad community string from 206.79.240.190 > mae-west Bad community string from 193.38.113.216 > pdx Bad community string from 204.119.24.200 > pen Bad community string from 164.117.144.245 > pen Bad community string from 193.38.113.216 > paix Bad community string from 204.79.240.190 So every day some poor NOC person has to search these folk down with the great tools we have, send email, get told they're nazi idiots, ... So what do folk do about this? randy - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
