Hi,

i try to check if a SNMP service is available. I did the following:

pc59093:~ # nmap -sU -sV -p161,162 pc53200

The response was:

Service detection performed. Please report any incorrect results at http://nmap.org/submit/ .
Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 46.56 seconds


On one hand, the response said it's a SNMPv3 server. On the other hand nmap said it can't recognize the service.
That does not make sense to me.

Thanks for any help

I'd say nmap just gave you a probable guess on the service running on
those ports according to the "SNMPv3" string found on the fingerprint.
However, since this specific fingerprint does not match nmap's fp
database, it alerts you to confirm that the service is really this and
to feedback community by sending your results. Once you and others have
done this nmap can grow it's certainty of service version.
