Net-SNMP 5.4 will include a new module called winExtDLL that will add the ability to use the existing Windows SNMP Service extension agents. This means that you can use the existing HOST-RESOURCES-MIB (hostmib.dll) and others that are shipped with Windows. With winExtDLL enabled, doing a walk of the entire tree should give the same results as walking with the Microsoft SNMP Service.
The module will load the same DLLs that the Windows SNMP Service would load. The list of modules is contained in HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\SNMP\Parameters\ExtensionAgents. Both SNMP v1 and v2 extensions agents are supported and there is also support for sending traps from an extension agent. The trap support isn't 100% complete but should be for the 5.4 release. Details on compiling the module are in README.win32. There will be a Windows binary available before the final release of 5.4 to allow users without a compiler to test the new extension. Testers are needed so if you can compile from CVS, please let me know of any issues. Alex ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
