I believe I configured the snmpd master agent listening on port 705 by placing
the following into the "snmpd.conf" file:
agentxsocket localhost:705
I believe I configured my subagent to register with (and receive requests from)
the master agent on TCP port 705 by including the following line in my
subagent.c file (ie: snmpSubagent_ocStbHostMib.c):
netsnmp_ds_set_string(NETSNMP_DS_APPLICATION_ID, NETSNMP_DS_AGENT_X_SOCKET,
"localhost:705");
The master agent and subagent can execute successfully on our hardware box.
For SNMP request testing purposes, I transferred the SNMP applications
(snmpget, snmpwalk, etc..) and the MIB.txt files onto our hardware box so I
could confirm the agents do process SNMP requests successfully .... and they
do.
Here are some of the SNMP requests:
1) /usr/local/bin/snmptranslate -On SNMPv2-MIB::sysUpTime.0
2) /usr/local/bin/snmptranslate .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0
3) /usr/local/bin/snmpwalk -v1 -c mycommunity_ro 127.0.0.1
ocStbHostAVInterfaceTable
I just do not understand how these SNMP requests are related to port 705? I
mean how does the master agent get the SNMP request if the master agent is only
listening to port 705?
Maybe someone can explain this to me?
