Copied from upstream bug tracker on behalf of Maciek Kolbusz https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=112694&aid=1889739&group_id=12694 Hi Guys, I've been working on a SNMP network scanner and found that weird thing where some of my Linux machines (physical and virtual) showed invalid values in ipNetToMediaTable. In ipNetToMediaNetAddress column there were 0.0.0.0 in every row. Other columns of the same table, ie. ipNetToMediaPhysAddress, were showing correct values. That was happening only on machines running with Fedora Core 7 and Fedora 8. Each of those had the latest version of net-snmp installed from repos which was 5.4.1. On one machine where Fedora Core 7 was installed I removed net-snmp packages with yum. Then I downloaded, compiled and ran snmpd from net-snmp-5.3.2 package and the problem was gone - agent started to give correct values in ipNetToMediaNetAddress column. Version 5.3.2 was just a random pick - I was looking for something older than 5.4, as I noticed that my other machines (SuSE, Centos, FreeBSD) with versions of net-snmp ranging from 5.0 to 5.2 installed didn't cause such issue with invalid IPs in ipNetToMediaTable. Let me know if there is a solution for that other than installation of older packages. Regards. Maciek
