My policy permits inside users to access just about
any outside service.  I disallowed SNMP for a
while until I tracked that problem down.  I use FW1, but
had I had an AG in place that had the capability to allow
SNMP out, I would have allowed it.

An Application Gateway Firewall would (presumably) stop this from happening
unless you specifically opened a hole for it.  Is it safe to "ass-u-me"
that you were running a packet filter and allowing anything that
established "inside" as OK to the outside?  Just curious...
