Walking operations

Bulk walk MIB

Send a series of SNMP GETBULK requests using the following options:

  • with SNMPv2c, community ‘public’

  • over IPv4/UDP

  • to an Agent at demo.pysnmp.com:161

  • for all OIDs past SNMPv2-MIB::system

  • run till end-of-mib condition is reported by Agent

  • based on asyncio I/O framework

Functionally similar to:

$ snmpbulkwalk -v2c -c public -Cn0 -Cr50
demo.pysnmp.com SNMPv2-MIB::system

import asyncio
from pysnmp.hlapi.v1arch.asyncio import *


async def run(varBinds):

        while True:
            iterator = await bulk_cmd(
                snmpDispatcher,
                CommunityData("public"),
                await UdpTransportTarget.create(("demo.pysnmp.com", 161)),
                0,
                50,
                *varBinds,
            )

            errorIndication, errorStatus, errorIndex, varBindTable = iterator

            if errorIndication:
                print(errorIndication)
                break

            elif errorStatus:

                    "{} at {}".format(
                        errorStatus.prettyPrint(),
                        errorIndex and varBinds[int(errorIndex) - 1][0] or "?",
                    )
                )
            else:

                    print(" = ".join([x.prettyPrint() for x in varBind]))

            varBinds = varBindTable
            if is_end_of_mib(varBinds):
                break
