APAR Error Description / Circumvention
-----------------------------------------------
SNMP is not correctly validating the security level of the
incoming message's SNMPv3 user with the security level of the
configured SNMPv3 user.
CORRECTION FOR APAR SE65607 :
-----------------------------
The SNMP agent code has been changed so that the security level
of the incoming message's SNMPv3 user must exactly match the
security level of the configured SNMPv3 user. If a mismatch
occurs, the SNMP agent will not send a response to the incoming
message.
CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR SE65607 :
--------------------------------
None.
