Is there an advantage to using Session instead of just writing your
own session? I guess most of the code I have been writing has been
using OO python bindings and it does seem to be written in an OO
fashion there, especially Session.
These are some of the python examples from test:
sess = netsnmp.Session(Version = 1, DestHost='localhost',
Community='public')
vars =
netsnmp.VarList(netsnmp.Varbind('.1.3.6.1.6.3.12.1.2.1.2.116.101.115.116','','.1.3.6.1.6.1.1'),
netsnmp.Varbind('.1.3.6.1.6.3.12.1.2.1.3.116.101.115.116','','1234'),
netsnmp.Varbind('.1.3.6.1.6.3.12.1.2.1.9.116.101.115.116','', 4))
res = sess.set(vars)
But you don't have to do it that way, you can also just do:
var = netsnmp.Varbind('.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1','0')
res = netsnmp.snmpget(var,
Version = 1,
DestHost='localhost',
Community='public')
print "v1 snmpget result: ", res, "\n"
