Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Fixed In Version: net-snmp-5.7.2-25.el7 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
SNMP response is no longer timed out Previously, all the Simple Network Management Protocol version 1 (SNMPv1) and SNMPv2c responses that followed an SNMPv3 message were checked against the last recorded SNMPv3 "max message size" property. As a consequence, an SNMPv3 request with a small "max message size" could lead to SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c bulk requests timing out. With this update, the session maximum message size is checked only for SNMPv3 requests, and the SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c response is no longer timed out.

Can we get a little more detail on this issue?

Note: significant work on too big responses has been done and will be in 5.8.

Comment 3 Jan Safranek 2016-04-07 11:27:51 UTC
Robert, it's a request to port this back to RHEL: https://sourceforge.net/p/net-snmp/bugs/2482/. Bugzilla is unnecessarily secretive here.
