25.SH NAME
26snmp.conf \- snmp configuration file for cups
27.SH DESCRIPTION
28The \fIsnmp.conf\fR file configures the CUPS SNMP printer
29discovery backend and is normally located in the \fI/etc/cups\fR
30directory. Each line in the file can be a configuration
31directive, a blank line, or a comment. Comment lines start with
32the # character.
33.LP
34The SNMP backend uses the SNMPv1 protocol to discover network
35printers, collecting information from the Host MIB along with
36intelligent port probes to determine the correct device URI and
37make and model for each printer. Future versions of CUPS will
38likely support the new Port Monitor MIB as well.
39.SH DIRECTIVES
40The following directives are understood by the SNMP backend.
