[AFMUG] Stupid MikroTik SNMP

[George Skorup]

I know Nate has mentioned this before. Wondering if there's a solution. 
This has been driving me nuts for years.

A large/complicated OSPF design may have some asymmetric paths between A 
and Z. But the problem comes down to asymmetry at the router you're 
trying to poll.
For example, SNMP polling a router to its loopback IP, requests come in 
on say ether1, but the replies go out ether2 = SNMP timeout. In and out 
same interface works fine.
Everything else to the router works fine, like WWW, telnet, winbox, etc. 
but obviously those are TCP, so this has me wondering if it's a UDP 
thing or just SNMP...?
