What's the difference between a dynamically loaded module and a subagent. What would be end-product of developing a subagent.

OK - in that case Sazid is quite correct. You should use one of the agent trap API calls. Please see the FAQ for a discussion for sending traps from the agent. > I would be generating the skeleton code using mib2c and compile to produce a > .so file. > Il then embed the path of this .so file into the snmpd.conf of the master > agent.

But the distinction doesn't really matter too much. (Except that it might confuse the list if you talk about a "subagent" in this context) > I need your inputs on this approach as well. That approach should work fine. Dave "DISCLAIMER: This message is proprietary to Aricent and is intended solely for the use of the individual to whom it is addressed.
