Re: Key Managment Query/Comments...




Robert, 

	SNMP-V2 does not have what I would call "robust security" in
the sense required for generic key management.  Moreover, because SNMP
embodies a client/server model for interactions between managed
objects and managers, it seems an unlikely basis for creating a key
management protocol that would support secure communication between
peers, especially when the peers are administratively autonomous.
