RE: SNMP object ACCESS

["Wijnen, Bert (Bert)" <bwijnen@lucent.com>]

In this case, you can create an AGENT-CAPABILITIES statement in which
you specify that you implement access of READ-ONLY. This means that
you deviate from the compliance statement as specified for example in 
RFC2012.

If you need forther discussion, it would be better to ask the question on
the
mibs or snmpv3 mailing lists.

Hope this helps, 
Bert
