getMibstat is a Solaris-specific utility routine, for retrieving certain
standard SNMP values from the running kernel. In particular, it
implements an internal cache, to avoid having to spend too much
time pulling information out of the kernel.
It's not a particularly clean model, and isn't really intended for direct
use by external developers. This style of caching is increasingly
being handled at the MIB module level:
process myMib:
if ( cached data too old )
reload cache
architecture-specific reload
return relevent data from cache
rather than the getMibstat model of:
processmyMib
read data
architecture-specific read data
if ( cached data too old)
architecture-specific reload
return relevant data
The 'var_ipRouteEntry' routine is the implementation of the
original RFC1213 ipRouteTable. It uses the standard UCD v4
MIB module API, as described in the file AGENT.txt
This table has been superceded by a series of refinements,
mostly under the heading of the IP-FORWARD-MIB.
