The DPI will not help you as it is a server-side API. That is, it allows you to handle GETs and SETs issued by a remote SNMP client. There is no SNMP client-side API on CMS. Technically there is, but it is via an undocumented IUCV interface to SNMPQE (the SNMP Query Engine) that is used by NetView. :-( (And by "undocumented" I mean "there isn't a shred of documentation anywhere I can find".)
