The snmp backend should be mentioned in "What's New in CUPS 1.2?"


Also, it is not entirely clear to me under which conditions exactly its discoveries are getting displayed in the web interface. I'll find out more through experimenting -- but then I do not know if that does match the intended conditions or not.

2 preliminary results from my experiments:

  1. all discovered network printers are automatically listed in the
    web interface if I use this cupsd.conf (snippet):

    Order Deny,Allow Deny from all Allow from 127.0.0.1

    and then launch http://localhost:631/admin

  2. auto-discovery results never show up if I start the web based printer
    installer wizard via http://localhost:631/admin?op=add-printer
    (whatever the cupsd.conf configuration is).

Fixed in Subversion repository.

WRT how auto-discovery works, it happens when you to a CUPS-Get-Devices request - the admin page and the second page of the add-printer "wizard" both use this, as does "lpinfo -v".
