For testing SNMP v1 and v2 credentials, the windows application SnmpB works. It is an open source tool, and can be downloaded from Source Forge


For testing SNMP v3, the tool is not all that helpful – a more powerful unix/linux based tool called "snmpwalk" can be used.


For Ubuntu, this is part of the snmp-mibs-downloader package


Usage Examples:

# login as a user with no authentication required
snmpwalk -v 3 -l noauth -u noauthuser localhost

# login as a user with Authentication required, but no Privacy
snmpwalk -v 3 -l auth -u snmp3user -A Falcon99 localhost

# Login as a user with authentication and privacy -- note that the -A (authentication) and -X (encryption) passwords can be different
snmpwalk -v 3 -l auth -u snmp3user -A Falcon99 -X Falcon99 localhost
