Greetings all,

Here is the scenario: I have (lightly) modified a version of snmpd - 5.2.3 
(under debian) to listen to RT-NETLINK and thereby trigger "monitor" items 
for link up/down status immediately instead of using the "-r <timeout>" option.

I now receive traps immediately the port link status changes, but 
unfortunately they give me stale information about the port.

I went back and polled the daemon with snmpget while I changed the port 
status, and noticed that snmpget receives stale information about the port 
for ~10 to ~30s after link status changes. Note also that any monitor 
timeout of less than 30s will also fail to report link status changes, at 
least on the first one or more monitor timeouts.

Does anyone know why there is this apparent delay in the internal data of 
the agent, and how it might be remedied?


Thanks in advance and regards,

Michael Leslie
