Re:Their SNMP experts aren't experts... (Score 1)

The use of SNMP v1 is widespread. I've worked on three projects with major well-known (like REALLY well known) telecom companies and computer companies. In all three they required from us SNMP v1 only. If you've ever run a management tool outside a firewall and tell it to go discover whatever it can find, you'll find thousands of SNMP v1 devices out there with the 2 most obvious community strings protecting them. But that's nothing because you will find dozens of companies who subscribe to your ISP who don't even have firewalls.
