I am using Net-SNMP 5.3.0.1, and I am having problems with the size of the
packets returned by getbulk.
According to RFC 3416 (section 4.2.3):
" (1) If the size of the message encapsulating the Response-PDU
containing the requested number of variable bindings would be
greater than either a local constraint or the maximum message
size of the originator, then the response is generated with a
lesser number of variable bindings. "
However, it seems that when the msgMaxSize of the originator is exceeded,
Net-SNMP agent doesn't respond at all (timeout is seen in the command
generator). The checking of the packet size is done right before sending it (in
_sess_async_send), so I guess it is not that easy to go back and remove
varbinds at that point (even more is the packet is already encrypted).
Is this functionality implemented in any other Net-SNMP version? Any ideas
about where this should be implemented?
Thanks,
Gabriel
