Indicates whether the SNMP agent process is permitted to generate authentication-failure traps. The value of this object overrides any configuration information; as such, it provides a means whereby all authentication-failure traps may be disabled.

Note that it is strongly recommended that this object be stored in non-volatile memory so that it remains constant between re-initializations of the network management system.

For JetDirect, this object is only implemented for agents which include a tcpip stack. This is generally the case, but with the advent of NOVELL only products this object will not be available.
