[FW1] SNMP on FW-1 machine

[Wonder Kid <leelk4@FW1-NOSPAMyahoo.com>]

Hi, 

Does anyone know whether FW-1 need SNMP services to be
turned on on NT4 or Solaris? 

If SNMP service is turned on NT4 or Solaris with FW-1
installed, and no further configuration is done, i.e.
community strings etc were not changed, does it has
impact on FW-1?

Microsoft had just released patches to resolve the
registry key vulnerability related to SNMP
(http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/fq00-095.asp).
The notes mentioned that such vulnerability could
allows others to misconfigure the firewall. Not fully
understand how FW-1 worked on SNMP, I wish to seek
comments from the group on this vulnerability.
