I can answer only this question - I'm not very familiar with SNMPv3, but Shteryana should be able to help. No, there is no document with all the setting. The reason is simple: the config file is just a set of SNMP SET PDUs executed at startup, SIGHUP or module load. The file is segmented into sections by %name lines with all segments having the same name beeing put together. At the begin of the file there is an implicit %snmpd line. Each section is a SET PDU. The %snmpd PDU is executed on startup and SIGHUP, all other sections are executed when the corresponding module is beeing loaded or on SIGHUP if that module is already loaded when the SIGHUP occures. So any writeable or creatable MIB variable can be put into the configuration file. harti
