SNMP performs network
management functions using a data structure called a
Management Information Base (MIB). SNMP is widely
implemented but not very secure, because it uses only text community
strings for accessing controller or service platform configuration
files. Use SNMP ACLs to help reduce SNMP‘s vulnerabilities, as
SNMP traffic can be exploited to produce a denial of service
(DoS).
