Has anyone heard when (or if) SNMP v3 will be available for XPe?

Regards.

Mark,

As far as I know, XP Pro doesn't even support SNMP 3 in the Windows
SNMP service. There are third party packages that replace the Windows
SNMP Master Agent with their own SNMP V3 capable one, and then you
write sub-agents to implement your MIB using their tools.

Microsoft's direction seems to be WMI (CIM) for management. I don't
think that at this point they will release a v3 SNMP component unless
forced to. I could be wrong, however...

I agree with Desi's input.
In my experience, there is only SNMP v2 (older RFC) has been implemented on XP Pro.
We all know that XPe binaries are the same as on XP Pro (matching SP) so you may not expect new RFC implementation on XPE earlier
than on XP Pro.
