[HECnet] req for assistance: is snmp blocked for some / all ? does it work?

Just wanted to say thank you all for responding to my original request. Johnny - the part of the MIB most people posted here makes it less of a black hole; it tells you the areas, hops and cost the Cisco sees when you are calculating why some area is going through North America for example. You could ask for a confidential read-only password from Cisco owners. foobar for mine will continue to work.
