Hi,

I'm reading net-snmp site, using C language and unix environment, I have manager ( do get/set command), agent and server ... I'm trying to monitor cpu, memory and disk usage and get Ip address of server and send the value back to agent, stored in variable which enable manager to gets the value through get command...


- if I use mib2c -c mib2c.int_watch.conf myMIB ( I provide a sample code at the end of this message):
it declare the variables as integers (same managed object in myMIB, e.g: example1: in the provided code), how can I manipulate the variable outside of SNMP gets/sets ? ( example1= 20, will not change the value of example1 that seen by the manager).

-If I use mib2c -c mib2c.scalar.conf myMIB
It declare no variables just provide handler function ... how to edit the handler and change value of managed object if it is not declared?

Thanks in advance ..

----------------------------------------------

Code example: (mib2c -c mib2c.int_watch.conf myMIB)
This example creates some scalar registrations that allows some simple variables to be accessed via SNMP. In a more realistic example, it is likely that these variables would also be manipulated in other ways outside of SNMP gets/sets.
If this module is compiled into an agent, you should be able to issue snmp commands that look something like (authentication information not shown in these commands):

snmpget localhost netSnmpExampleInteger.0
netSnmpExampleScalars = 42
snmpset localhost netSnmpExampleInteger.0 = 1234
netSnmpExampleScalars = 1234
snmpget localhost netSnmpExampleInteger.0
netSnmpExampleScalars = 1234
