Explanation

Three true statements are: (A) SNMPv3 enhanced SNMPv2 security features - SNMPv3 added message integrity, authentication (HMAC-MD5/SHA), and encryption (DES/AES) to address SNMPv2's reliance on plaintext community strings. (C) SNMPv2 added the Inform protocol message to SNMP - Inform was introduced in SNMPv2 as a reliable, acknowledged alternative to traps; SNMPv3 inherited it. (E) SNMPv2 added the GetBulk protocol message to SNMP - GetBulk was introduced in SNMPv2 to efficiently retrieve large blocks of MIB data in a single request. The false statements: B and D are wrong because Inform and GetBulk were SNMPv2 additions, not SNMPv3. F is wrong because GetNext was part of SNMPv1, not a new feature of SNMPv2.
