Description

SNMP monitoring and management support was added in JDK 5 as Oracle JDK support:
   http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/management/snmp.html

There hasn't been much customer inquiry and feedback on JVM SNMP monitoring.  This issue suggests re-examining this feature and consider to deprecate in JDK 10 and remove it in JDK 11 that includes com.sun.management.snmp.* properties configured in management.properties file.

JVM-MANAGEMENT-MIB.mib is defined by JSR 163 and thus this issue requires to look into the specification and evaluate its implication.

The java.security.acl APIs have now been marked with forRemoval=true in JDK 10, and the intention/plan as of now is to remove them in JDK 11. Here is the changeset: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/rev/e6e6ed17abbe

I think we should at least looking at flagging SNMP for removal in a future release.

Looks like com.sun.jmx.snmp.IPAcl package provides the implementation of java.security.acl. It doesn't use sun.security.acl.

jdk.snmp depends on java.security.acl that is planned to be removed (JDK-8050955). SNMP implementation needs to be updated to prepare for the removal of java.security.acl.
