NAME
     snmp.conf - snmp configuration file for cups (deprecated)

DESCRIPTION
     The snmp.conf file configures how the standard CUPS network backends (http,
     https,  ipp,  ipps, lpd, snmp, and socket) access printer information using
     SNMPv1 and is normally located in the /usr/local/etc/cups directory.   Each
     line  in the file can be a configuration directive, a blank line, or a com-
     ment. Comment lines start with the # character.

     The Community and DebugLevel directives are used by all backends.	The  re-
     mainder apply only to the SNMP backend - cups-snmp(8).

DIRECTIVES
     The following directives are understood by the CUPS network backends:

     Address @IF(name)

     Address @LOCAL

     Address address
	  Sends  SNMP  broadcast  queries  (for  discovery) to the specified ad-
	  dress(es).  There is no default for the broadcast address.

     Community name
	  Specifies the community name to use.	Only a single community name may
	  be specified.  The default community name is "public".  If no name  is
	  specified, all SNMP functions are disabled.

     DebugLevel number
	  Specifies  the  logging  level from 0 (none) to 3 (everything).  Typi-
	  cally only used for debugging (thus  the  name).   The  default  debug
	  level is 0.

     DeviceURI "regular expression" device-uri [... device-uri]
	  Specifies one or more device URIs that should be used for a given make
	  and  model  string.	The  regular expression is used to match the de-
	  tected make and model, and the device URI strings must be of the  form
	  "scheme://%s[:port]/[path]",	where  "%s"  represents the detected ad-
	  dress or hostname.  There are no default device URI matching rules.

     HostNameLookups on

     HostNameLookups off
	  Specifies whether the addresses of printers  should  be  converted  to
	  hostnames or left as numeric IP addresses.  The default is "off".

     MaxRunTime seconds
	  Specifies  the  maximum  number  of seconds that the SNMP backend will
	  scan the network for printers.  The default is  120  seconds	(2  min-
	  utes).

NOTES
     CUPS  backends  are  deprecated and will no longer be supported in a future
     feature release of CUPS.  Printers that do not support IPP can be supported
     using applications such as ippeveprinter(1).
