Agent-side MIB implementations#
Implementing scalar MIB objects#
Listen and respond to SNMP GET/GETNEXT queries with the following options:
SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c
with SNMP community “public”
over IPv4/UDP, listening at 127.0.0.1:161
over IPv6/UDP, listening at [::1]:161
serving two Managed Objects Instances (sysDescr.0 and sysUptime.0)
Either of the following Net-SNMP commands will walk this Agent:
$ snmpwalk -v2c -c public 127.0.0.1 .1.3.6
$ snmpwalk -v2c -c public udp6:[::1] .1.3.6
The Command Receiver below uses two distinct transports for communication with Command Generators - UDP over IPv4 and UDP over IPv6.
