But surely security and "as if simultaneously" are more related to the design of the inter-agent API, rather than how to implement that API within the Net-SNMP agent framework? For example, the SET processing capabilities of AgentX are significantly better than those for SMUX - but that's inherent in the design of the two protocols. The Net-SNMP agent could be extended to run as a SMUX subagent using a similar "north-end" approach to that used for the existing AgentX implementation. It would then support the "as if simultaneously" requirements to the full extent that SMUX is capable of (which isn't much, I agree!) Whether this is actually worth doing in any particular case is a different question :-) Dave ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Discover Easy Linux Migration Strategies from IBM.
