Hi Dave,
Thanks again. Could you possibly explain why an snmpbulkwalk
command would work on my MIB when the non-repeater value is set to 1
and fail when not set at all? As my original email specified, if a
snmpbulkwalk is done on one of my tables I get:
No more variables left in this MIB View (It is past the end of the MIB tree)
If the -Cn1 is set then no such problem. The real problem is
trying to walk multiple tables in one snmpbulkwalk, as it can't go
from one to another if it receives the "No more" after the first.

No - the two fields have completely different purposes.
A single GetBulk request is basically equivalent to one
GetNext request (with "non-repeater" varbinds) followed
by "max-repetitions" GetNext requests (each containing
the remaining varbinds).
So
GetBulk( non=2, max=3) A B C D E
is equivalent to:
GetNext A B
GetNext C D E
GetNext C' D' E'
GetNext C" D" E"
If max=1, then this becomes
GetNext A B
GetNext C D E
which is exactly equivalent to
GetNext A B C D E
It's the max-repetitions field that really distinguishes
GetBulk from GetNext requests. Hence setting this to 1
is
pointless.
