Those who monitor the S/F tracker or SVN commit mailing lists
may have noticed that I've been doing a mini blitz on the
Feature Requests tracker. There are a handful of entries that
perhaps warrent slightly wider discussion and input.
I'm therefore calling for comment on the following:
FR #592109:
Traditionally, the Host Resources MIB implementation has
reported NFS partitions as "fixed (local) disks", although there
are options to report them correctly (or skip them altogether).
* Should we consider reporting them as NFS mounts by default
(with the option of reverting to the previous behaviour)?
* If so, when? Main trunk (i.e. 5.5)? 5.4.1? all active branches?
FR #744697:
A few of the command line tools (e.g. snmpdf, snmpstatus)
have the necessary OIDs hardcoded into them, so don't actually
need to read OIDs from the command line. However they still
use the common option-processing routine, so accept the -I and
-O flags, and include this information in the on-line usage message.
* Is it worth suppressing this help output?
* Is it worth skipping these (irrelevant) flags in the option processing?
FR #755180
We currently ship a stripped down version of the SNMPv2-SMI MIB
(although the MIB parser does seem to cope with the full version).
* Is it worth shipping the standard version?
I've also implemented a few very simple "new features", which have
therefore been applied to the main trunk only. Is it worth back porting
any of these to the earlier lines? If so, which versions?
The entries in question are:
FR#722784, SVN r16441 - explicit end point for snmpwalk
FR#851887, SVN r16448 - display valid range in "out-of-range" error
FR#1041888, SVN r16449 - simple validation of config directories
FR#1159947, SVN r16459 - "format execute" in snmptrapd.conf
Thoughts?
