Description of problem: Fedora 35 removes DES from the supported privacy protocols of the snmp commands. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.9.1 Steps to Reproduce: 1. snmpwalk -v3 -x DES Actual results: * "Invalid privacy protocol specified after -3x flag: DES" * Usage text is printed and actually contains a line: "-x PROTOCOL set privacy protocol (DES|AES|AES-192|AES-256)" Expected results: DES should still be available in these client tools, sometimes this is needed for outdated devices. (If it will not be available it should not be part of the help text at least.)
Thanks for the report. DES support itself is not going to be part of net-snmp again as this is insecure cryptographic algorithm. But you're right, that we should update the help text of net-snmp, so I'll use this BZ for that.
