SNMP Query fails with Error: Error in packet. Reason: (genError) A general failure occured

I have enabled a win Server 2022 and a Win11 machine to answer SNMP requests.

However both machines run into error while doing a snmpwalk.

I have started with OID just before errornous OID.

Both machines show same behaviour.

Does someone experience same problem?

Can someone recreate this problem?

Does someone know a cure fort this problem?

Does someone have any ideas how to proceed?

 

root# snmpwalk -Os -v 1 -c public <hostname> .1.3.6.1.4.1.77

comVersionMaj.0 = STRING: "10"

comVersionMin.0 = STRING: "0"

comType.0 = Hex-STRING: 03 00 00 00

Error in packet.

Reason: (genError) A general failure occured

Failed object: comType.0

 

root@monitor:/etc/munin/plugins# snmpwalk -On -v 1 -c public <hostname> .1.3.6.1.4.1.77

.1.3.6.1.4.1.77.1.1.1.0 = STRING: "10"

.1.3.6.1.4.1.77.1.1.2.0 = STRING: "0"

.1.3.6.1.4.1.77.1.1.3.0 = Hex-STRING: 03 00 00 00

Error in packet.

Reason: (genError) A general failure occured

Failed object: .1.3.6.1.4.1.77.1.1.3.0
