Hi Folks,

I have enabled SNMP v2 & V3 on my VMWare ESXi 5.1 with the hslep of esxcli  system snmp set command. Now I do not know which version version works. How do i disable the v3 as I only want the v2  to be enabled. When ever I give the snmpwalk command on a remote host I get an Time Out error.

I also get the the time Out error on the lOcal host.  Also Please help me find the MIB files path

I am new to SNMP Please help!!
