SNMP community with nonexisting ACL

[Human374]

Hi All,

do you know how will SNMP act when it has an ACL configured but the ACL is not existing anymore:

snmp-server community Test RW 66

R1#show ip acce 66
R1#

Is it "permit any" or "deny any"?

Hello,

as far as I recall, it depends on the order of configuration: if you reference a non existing access list without actually having configured the access list, nothing will be blocked and everything will be allowed. If you have configured the access list, applied it, and then deleted it, but it is still referenced, all traffic will still be blocked...
