the Enable SNMP Support property.

the network) for an SNMP master agent. master agent to communicate with, and the server can
be monitored by an SNMP workstation. When this option is set to No, the server does not
communicate with an SNMP master agent and cannot be monitored by an SNMP workstation.
The default value is No.

modify Tunneling Reply Items.

as follows:

reply.
• Return-No-Tunnel-Attributes: Does not return any tunnel attributes in the authentication reply.
