 Hello! 
 
I am a newbie to Net-SNMP. 
 
Currently, I am trying to test the response of Net-SNMP in case of  invalid Parameter input. 
Example: 
  Invalid community name 
However, Timeout occurs in Net-SNMP 
 
Valid Test:  >snmpget -v1 -c public localhost .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0 
>SNMPv2-MIB::sysContact.0 = STRING: [email protected] 
Invalid Test: 
>snmpget -v1 -c common localhost .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0 
> Timeout: No Response from localhost. 
 
Question: 
1. May I know the default timeout and retry count value of snmpget? 
2. Does snmptrap also supports Retry and timeout? 
3. Does Net-SNMP really do not check valid parameter values? 
   Ex: community name. 
 
 
Btw, I am currently using net-snmpv5.4.1 in Linux, RedHat AS3 OS. 
 
 
Thank you very much in advance.
