 If the probes are using a substantial amount of CPU inside the 
network, it may be cheaper (CPU-wise) to deny SNMP inbound on border 
routers...Bye Bye problem, Hello access-list log to automate email 
from ;)


Yup, thats exactly the right thing to do, my network drops all SNMP packets
at all transit and access points, mmm Ascend GRF :-)

Regards,
Neil.
