No. The snmpd.conf file is used to control various aspects of the behaviour of the snmpd agent. It's not necessary (or expected) to recompile the agent. I'm not sure where NFS comes into things - the agent doesn't care about the underlying filesystems. Dave -- The Next 800 Companies to Lead America's Growth: New Video Whitepaper David G.

The value of sysUpTime at the time this conceptual

::= { sysOREntry 4 }
On 1 system, we’ve got values being populated:
SNMPv2-MIB::sysORUpTime.1 = Timeticks: (6) 0:00:00.06
SNMPv2-MIB::sysORUpTime.2 = Timeticks: (6) 0:00:00.06
and on another we have the following:
SNMPv2-MIB::sysORUpTime.1 = Timeticks: (0) 0:00:00.00
SNMPv2-MIB::sysORUpTime.2 = Timeticks: (0) 0:00:00.00
Two possibilities spring to mind:
a) the second system is much faster than the first,
and is populating the sysORTable within the first second of operation
b) the second system does not support the sysORUpTime object
All zeroes are causing some concern amongst our monitoring staff.
Is it just this table, or are you seeing this more widely?
The sysORTable was a nice idea that never really worked.
If that's the only thing that seems to be broken, then I wouldn't
worry too much about it.

But, how would the speed of populating sysORTable affect the value of sysUpTime? It's not the value of sysUpTime now. It's the value of sysUpTime ==at the point when this entry is added to the table === So on a slow system you might have: system starts (sysUpTime=0) tick (sysUpTime=1) tick (sysUpTime=2) tick (sysUpTime=3) add entry 1 to sysORTable (sysUpTime=3, hence sysORUpTime.1 = 3) tick (sysUpTime=4) add entry 2 to sysORTable (sysUpTime=4, hence sysORUpTime.2 = 4) etc, etc Whereas on the faster system, the initialisation would be much quicker, so it might go: system starts (sysUpTime=0) add entry 1 to sysORTable (sysUpTime=0, hence sysORUpTime.1 = 0) add entry 2 to sysORTable (sysUpTime=0, hence sysORUpTime.2 = 0) tick (sysUpTime=1) Remember that sysORUpTime doesn't change - it's fixed to whatever the value of sysUpTime (which *does* change) when the row was created.

In which case, the exec/extend mechanism is probably not the best choice for you. This is intended as a quick-and-easy mechanism for providing information without needing to define/implement a MIB. The price associated with this is that the MIB structure it uses is fixed, and may not be appropriate for all uses. We've tried to make this framework as generic as possible, but if you need information that falls outside this MIB, then you are looking at either processing this on the client side (to turn the string into a number), or defining a new MIB that more closely matches your requirements.

What exactly are you interested in?
Client applications? The SNMP agent (in broad terms)?
The processing of an individual requested varbind?
Subagents?
From here, now when should i start?
When? As soon as you like?
Where?
For following client applications, the simplest is probably to run one
of the clients within a debugger, and single-step through the code.
For following the workings of the agent, it's probably simpler to start
by turning on some selected debugging (-D{token}) and watch what
happens when the agent receives a request.
Have a look through the code under 'agent' for mention of DEBUGMSG,
and turn on something that looks interesting.
(Hint - do *not* turn on full debugging. You'll drown in the output!)

I wouldn't try to send the trap directly from the module initialisation

set up at this point, since this routine is called *before* the config
files are processed.
Instead, register a callback routine, to be invoked after the config files
have been read in:
snmp_register_callback(SNMP_CALLBACK_LIBRARY,
SNMP_CALLBACK_POST_READ_CONFIG,
send_mySysDown_callback, NULL);
And invoke the 'send_mySysDown_trap()' routine from there.
Although if this is a sysDOWN trap, rather than a sysUP trap,
you might actually be better off registering the callback as
snmp_register_callback(SNMP_CALLBACK_LIBRARY,
SNMP_CALLBACK_SHUTDOWN,
send_mySysDown_callback, NULL);
so the trap is sent when the agent shuts down, not when it's
just started up.

Re: Query: SNMP Prococol
On 18 October 2010 12:57, Queenie de Melo queenie...@gmail.com wrote: So the SNMP agent(Server) listens on port 161 for SNMP GET/SET requests from the SNMP Manager (Client) Correct. (Strictly speaking, the agent can listen on any available port, but port 161 is the standard port for SNMP information retrieval) What about in Case of traps? The SNMP Manager in this case listens on UDP port 162 for the Traps sent by the SNMP Agent. So in this case, is it that the SNMP Manager is the Server and SNMP Agent is the client?? That's right. The SNMP agent (or some other application that generates traps) is the client and the application that receives the trap is the server. The official terminology is notification generator and notification receiver. The notification receiver may be the same SNMP manager application as the one generating information retrieval requests. Or it may be a dedicated trap-receiving application (such as the Net-SNMP 'snmptrapd'). But the most important thing here is that the client-server relationship is reversed for traps, when compared to GET/SET requests. Another query i had is: what exactly are SNMP INFORMS? A trap is sent from the agent to the trap receiver, but there's no acknowledgement sent back. So the agent doesn't know whether the trap got there safely (let alone whether it was acted upon). An INFORM is essentially the same as a trap, except that it *does* trigger an acknowledgement. So the agent (or other notification generator application) knows that the inform was received. (Whether the receiver actually did anything with it is a different question!) Think of this as the same as read receipt messages in the context of email. SNMP inform is nothing it's an acknowledgment mechanisim in SNMP. which is getting supported from snmpv2c and snmpv3 onwards Is it sent from the Manager to the Agent in response to a TRAP? No or is it sent from Agent to Manager just like a trap (but u want manager to ack the receiptof trap) Yes. or is it sent from NMS(SNMP Manager) to another SNMP Manager SNMP Manager is something of a vague term. Any SNMP application can act in various different roles - hence the current specifications talk in terms of notification receiver or notification generator (and similarly for GET/SET requests) It's perfectly possible for one SNMP manager application to signal to another, using traps or informs. But the most typical use of traps or informs would be from an agent to an NMS.

Firstly, the local SNMP library isn't loading RFC1253-MIB by default, so snmpgetnext doesn't understand what 'ospfRouterId' means Wes has told you how to deal with this. Secondly, the agent that you are querying probably doesn't support the OSPF information (or if it does, then you don't have access to it). That may be harder to fix. You probably need to talk to the vendor of the SNMP agent, to see whether the agent supports the OSPF group or not. (And if this is the Net-SNMP agent, then the answer is no - our agent does *not* support this MIB). The only way to fix that is to write the necessary code to add this functionality to the agent (or pay the vendor to do this for you). If the agent *does* support this MIB, then you need to look at the access control settings of the agent. But there's no point in doing that until you've discovered whether the agent provides that information in the first place.

Re: when is an handler called?
On 1 October 2010 16:54, Leo Cacciari leo.cacci...@gmail.com wrote: I'm trying to understand a thing about the new API. What does it means that A handler is netsnmp_create_handler() created and then netsnmp_register_handler() registered with the main agent at a given OID in the OID tree and gets called any time a request is made that it should respond to. Does the handler receive all the requests asking for an OID under the root OID at which the handler is registered? Sort-of, yes. That's the basic idea of registering a handler - it says I'm willing to deal with anything within this subtree But there are two complications: - If handler A registers one OID (say .1) and then handler B registers an OID within this subtree (say .1.3) then they are both laying claim to the same set of OID (i.e. everything under .1.3) Any requests received for OIDs within this disputed range are given to the more specific registration (i.e. handler B) - The registration is actually of a handler *chain*, rather than a single handler routine. The incoming request is passed to the start of the chain - but may not necessarily make its way through to the final handler. For example, if you write a handler to deal with a scalar MIB object (say sysDescr), and register this using 'register_scalar_handler' - then this handler chain will include a helper which knows about scalars. In particular, it knows that the only valid instance for a scalar object is .0 So if the agent receives a request for sysDescr.1, this request will be passed to the registered chain, where the scalar helper will say this can't possibly be valid, and return an error without ever calling your sysDescr handler Similar things may happen with table-based handler chains. But the basic idea is that for any portion of the OID tree, there's a handler (chain) which is ready to deal with requests for those OIDs. OK?

Re: a patch for memory leak
CC Does anybody know why netsnmp only allow 128 OID in one request? CC #define SNMP_MAX_CMDLINE_OIDS 128 That's actually a mandate by the SNMP protocol. Are you sure, Wes? As far as I can tell, the protocol specifies the maximum number of subidentifiers within a single OID, but not the number of varbind that are allowed in a single request. A very quick look at the code seems to indicate that this constant is simply there to simplify the handling of the command-line arguments. I don't believe it's dependent on anything in the SNMP protocol itself.

Please consider the following question: - How does the snmptable command know when it has received the last row of table A? I also think so, but It is a waste of resource, especilly in my condition. It's not a question of waste of resources. This is fundamental to how walking SNMP tables works. You will *ALWAYS* run off the end of one table, and on to the next. That's the only way that the client command knows that it has reached the end of the table. There are 3 main contact function in my code. 1. handler 2. get_first_data_point: It wll get all the data of the table 3. get_next_data_point When I typed snmptable to get table information, I find the handler was contacted servel times, Yes - once for GETNEXT request. (Which is typically once for each row of the table) *ALL* table handlers work this way - they are inevitably called once for each incoming request. You cannot get away from that. But you've suddenly changed the question. You are no longer talking about switching from the table A helper to table B. You now seem to be concerned about how often the table A code is being called. and the get_first_data_point function was contacted the same times. Yes - that's how the iterator works. For each individual incoming request (GET or GETNEXT), the 'get_first' hook routine will be called once, and the 'get_next' hook routine will be called multiple times (typically as many times as there are rows in the table). We state very clearly in the documentation that the iterator helper is not the most efficient mechanism for implementing a table. It's designed for relatively small tables, where the data is naturally held in a random order. So it will get ALL data of the table servel times. (the waste of resource) Which is why we repeatedly recommend that people use the cache helper, which will save re-loading the table data multiple times in quick succession. I want to improve it a) Look at using the cache helper (mib2c -S cache=1 -c mib2c.iterate.conf ...) b) Look at using one of the other table helpers (e.g. mib2c -S cache=1 -c mib2c.table_data.conf ... or the MfD framework) But if you use one of the more inefficient helpers, in a relatively inefficient way, then yes - you are going to see performance implications.

When the table B was the big one and I wanna get table A, it wastes time and resource to get a *BIG* table B that I don't neet it. If your tables are big, then I *strongly* suggest you use a more efficient approach than the iterate helper. Personally, I tend to go for the table_data helper, together with a local cache. Robert would probably advise you to use the MfD framework. (And although I don't like it myself, this should also work more sensibly in this situation). But bear in mind that although a walk of table A will trigger a query for the next OID supported by the agent, this won't involve walking the *whole* of table B. There should only ever be one value returned from table B (being the value immediately following the last entry of the last column of table A). So it should be a one-time overhead of loading the data, plus a single pass through the get_first/next hooks, and one invocation of the table B handler (for one column value). If this continues to be an issue, you could always tweak the MIB to define a scalar object lying in between the two tables. So walking off the end of table A would retrieve this buffering scalar value, rather than loading table B.

Re: A question of net-snmp

Q1: If I use the command to get Table A, the agent will ask the inforation A and information B. The command is a bit vague. How exactly are you retrieving the table. Remember that many SNMP clients typically work by issuing a series of GETNEXT requests, starting at the beginning of the table, and continuing until this runs off the end. But the only way that the client knows that it has reached the end of the table, is to issue a request that returns something else (i.e. the next object in the MIB tree) This is normal - most clients would hide this from the network administrator. Q2: If I get a table Information only ONE time, but the agent will ask the information more than one time. Again - this question is really too vague to answer. But it's probably the same underlying answer. You are getting confused between a single command (snmpwalk or snmptable), and the sequence of (many) SNMP requests that are used to implement this command. See any good book on SNMP for more details.

The list of varbinds is fixed for a given trap, so the list of
OIDs is basically known, and can be defined within the
body of the routine itself. (Or as Wes suggests, use a
single OID buffer, and tweak the column subidentifier for
each varbind in turn).
In either case, all you need to pass in as parmeters are
the index of the row concerned, and the list of values.
You can use 'mib2c.notify.conf' to generate a suitable template
for this routine.

The host/hr_proc module then makes use of this to populate the hrProcessorTable (and the ucd-snmp/vmstat module makes use of the *same* information to populate the equivalent Net-SNMP specific CPU statistics).

The option -S cache={something} is a simple on-off flag.

If it's not specified, then the cache code will not be included.
The actual value is not important - -S cache=-1 means exactly

Try loading the NET-SNMP* MIBs into your MIB browser, or use
the Net-SNMP tools (snmpwalk) - this should then interpret the

Please share your views on what may be the issue in this case.
Well the obvious error in this MIB is in the TRAP-TYPE definition:
EventMonitorTrap TRAP-TYPE
ENTERPRISE EMC CLARiiON Advanced Storage Solutions
VARIABLES { .}
DESCRIPTION
::= 2
The ENTERPRISES clause is meant to contain the object identifier (name
or numeric OID) of the defining enterprise. It's not an arbitrary string.
See RFC1215, section 2.2.1 for a typical example.
That's almost certainly the cause of the crash.
There are some other errors as well
(OBJECT-TYPE should probably be imported from RFC1212 rather than 1155,
TRAP-TYPE is not imported at all, and the EventMonitorTrap name is
invalid - it needs to start with a lower-case letter)
but I doubt those are likely to cause any real problems.
It'll be the bogus enterprise value that's hitting you - try replacing
it with 'clariion'
and see if that works any better.

No. The option '-I-ifTable' when given to the main agent simply means don't invoke the routine 'init_ifTable' The effect of this is that the main agent won't try to register the ifTable, leaving the way clear for your subagent to provide this information. The problem will lie elsewhere - either in how your subagent registers with the master agent, or in how it responds to queries for this table. I would suggest that the ifTable is a fairly complicated table to start with. It would probably be a good idea to try with a simpler demo table first, and make sure you can register and query that successfully, before moving on to more compilcated tables.

The command to generate the code template would be mib2c -S cache=1 mib2c.iterate.conf uit Here the value '1' means include the code for a local cache (as opposed to '0' which means don't include any cache code) What Kathy was referring to is the value used for the cache timeout (which is specified as part of registering the cache handler). This is normally a timeout in seconds, and the agent will use values from the cache until the cache is that many seconds old. At which point the next request will trigger a reload of the cache with a new set of values, which will then be used for the next N seconds. However if this cache timeout has the special value -1, then this indicates that the cache should *always* be regarded as out-of-date, and hence every single request will trigger a reload. This will obviously be somewhat timeconsuming and inefficient, hence it's not something that we would recommend. But if you do insist on re-loading the data every time (and can accept the increased load), that's how you could do it. But I *strongly* suggest you experiment with small (non-negative) timeout values first.

I will repeat my suggestion from yesterday. Use one of the mib2c templates generated with '-S cache=1' That will produce code that uses a local cache, with a 'load' routine, which will be called when the cache is too old. If you set the timeout for the cache to be 0, then the data will be reloaded for every single new SNMP request. But note that this is every *request* - not every command. A single 'snmpwalk' command will trigger a whole sequence of GETNEXT requests, each of which will re-load the cache. That's why I think you might be better off with a cache timeout of a few seconds. But experiment - altering the timeout is a trivial change (and can even be done on the fly). No code changes are needed. Get something working using the cache first, and then worry about tuning the cache frequency.

Re: net-snmp mini-agent

Is there a little docu what the mini-agent excactly can/cannot do and what it includes? See the file agent/mibgroup/default_modules.h in the source tree. This lists the modules which are included in both the default agent, and the mini agent builds. The mini agent is effectively just the SNMP and system groups, plus access control. If I am correct i don't really need MIB modules to access data as far as I know the correct nummeric OID. Am I wright? Wrong. MIB module in this context (sometimes called MIB implementation module) is the agent code that provides the data for a particular set of OIDs. It is *NOT* the same as the MIB file (or strictly MIB module), which handles converting between names and numeric OIDs. So basically the whole accessable data of the device would be available by snmpget. No. If you've configured the mini agent, then basically *nothing* would be available via snmpget. If the agent doesn't have the code to process requests for a particular object, it cannot provide the corresponding values.
