Hi,

I am rather new to NetSNMP stuff and trying to understand the communication
between master-agent and sub-agent. Can someone please help me in clarifying
my following doubts:

a) Say I am writing a MIB .my for an object by the name of myObject. I
believe a var_myObject() function will be created by mib2c. I wanted to know
how this function is called by the master agent when it receives a snmpget
for an OID corresponding to myObject. What is the flow of communication
between master-agent and sub-agent in this respect.

b) Also, agent_check_and_process() will listen for events on internal FDs
from master-agent (for both GET and SET). Can we send traps also these FDs
or is there any way to register our own external FDs through
agent_check_and_process()?? If yes, then how are these handled by netSNMP.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Regards,
Shivani
