How to limit some snmp mib access

If you translate the globals in each of those mibs, you'll see where you can delineate in your oid string:

 

[root@ltm3:Active:Standalone] mibs # snmptranslate -On F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB::sysGlobals
.1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.1.1
[root@ltm3:Active:Standalone] mibs # snmptranslate -On F5-BIGIP-LOCAL-MIB::ltmGlobals
.1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.2.1
[root@ltm3:Active:Standalone] mibs # snmptranslate -On F5-BIGIP-GLOBAL-MIB::gtmGlobals
.1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.3.1

 

So if you want to define a community string that will only be allowed to read from the F5-BIGIP-SYSTEM-MIB, but not the others, you can set the string to allow everything from:

 

.1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.1

 

which after applied would look something like this:

 

sys snmp {
    agent-addresses { tcp6:161 udp6:161 }
    communities {
        if5devcentralrocks_1 {
            community-name f5devcentralrocks
            oid-subset .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.1
            source 192.168.1.245
        }
    }
...
}
