[tkined] SNMPv2/v3 summary

Okay, I know SNMPv1 pretty well. I need a good background FAQ
or summary on what changed in the various SNMPv2 incarnations,
and what's changed in SNMPv3. I've thought about reading the RFCs
themselves (novel concept huh), but I'm hoping for something a bit
less dense. Something that will give me a handle on the various
authorization/privacy stuff (which seems to be the major focus,
along with GetBulk and Informs).

So, anybody have any suggestions? Web access preferred, but Amazon
is only a click away for a book. I've gone over the comp.protocol.snmp
FAQ, and it was less than useful (other than outlining the different
versions of SNMPv2). The Simple Times had an article on SNMPv3 a while
back, but it was quite dense.

Thanks!
Pete
