Title: RE: Maximum packet size exceeded in a request
Is it possible running short of either memory or file descriptors could cause this "Maximum packet size exceeded in a request" problem?

The scenario is querying data in a loop on UDP by using getbulk, it works for a period of time. After a while, no data returns until restart snmpd and its subagents. It is hard to catch when this hanging happens. Only thing I can find in log file is "Maximum packet size exceeded in a request" from snmpd.

I checked the code, after this error happens, it will call callback function for NETSNMP_CALLBACK_OP_DISCONNECT and also close the session.

Since query is from UDP, so, this error should happen in communication between master and subagent. I am not sure what cause it. I am usning v5.0.9 on linux. The structure is a master with 3 subagents.

Does anybody have an idea where I should look into? I am really in the dark and hope experts can give some suggestion.

Thanks,

FT
