Hello,

couple of days ago I have posted a problem. This time I am trying to
rephrase it and express myself more clearly.

I need to write a simple Net-SNMP agent that would get data from another
process. The agent will not be aware of individual OIDs and their data,
this will be carried out by the other process.

The idea is as follows:
1. The agent would receive from the SNMP daemon requests (invoked by
snmpget) for a given range of OIDs (a sub-tree).
2. The agent would convert them and forward them to the other process.
3. The other process would convert OIDs to what-is-necessary and return
data to the agent.
4. The agent would pass the data back to the SNMP daemon.

The agent itself will not be aware of individual OIDs and their meaning.
This will be done by the other process that also holds the actual data.

I guess the example with MFD
http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/TUT:Writing_a_Subagent

is not what I need.

Would somebody point me to an example or SNMP functions I should use?

I need to:
- register the agent for a range of OIDs
- receive requests and extract OIDs from them
- return data to the daemon

The rest will be dealt between the agent and the other process.

I appreciate your help.

Milan
