Hi,
This snmp errors were present in earlier versions too, but they weren't shown in the log.
The change in 26.10.15295 was a fix to how the poller detects these errors.
Nothing changed on your devices: the timeouts were already happening, and they were just not visible before.
No action is needed right now.
A separate fix for handling these timeouts in the poller is planned for the next stable release.

Just upgraded Observium to 26.10.15295 (stable) and started getting this error on all of on a bunch of our Cisco devices
ERROR! snmpbulkwalk exit by timeout. If the device responds to other SNMP requests, try to decrease SNMP Max Repetitions on the device properties page or set to 0 to not use bulk snmp commands.
We've been running Observium for at least 5 years now and never seen this -- yes, I know I can follow the directions to fix it. Just wondering if something changed recently / between versions, etc.
Thanks
