SNMP: Response Read Only
This protocol anomaly triggers when it detects a SNMP GetResponse message with an error status set to "Read Only." SNMP servers should send this message only when the client attempts to set a value in the MIB that is read-only.
Extended Description
This condition could indicate a network configuration error. It could also indicate that an attacker is attempting to perform unauthorized modification of SNMP OIDs, or could be scanning the system for information.
