Object

scalar SNMPv2-SMICounter32 
The total number of community-based SNMP messages (for
example,  SNMPv1) delivered to the SNMP entity which
used an SNMP community name not known to said entity.
Also, implementations which authenticate community-based
SNMP messages using check(s) in addition to matching
the community name (for example, by also checking
whether the message originated from a transport address
allowed to use a specified community name) MAY include
in this value the number of messages which failed the
additional check(s).  It is strongly RECOMMENDED that
          
the documentation for any security model which is used
to authenticate community-based SNMP messages specify
the precise conditions that contribute to this value.
