Never knew snmptranslate did stuff outside of the master agent ..... thanks
for telling me this. So, is there a certain command I could run to verify the
master agent is "working"? Come to think of it .... I guess I could do a
snmpget (or something) on the "IF-MIB" since the master agent implements this
MIB internally already.
I guess my "snmpd.conf" and "subagent.c" files should have "127.0.0.1::1610"
instead of "localhost:1610"?
I realize Robert indicated using the 127.0.0.1 before (instead of localhost),
but I thought that was just for when I executed a SNMP request (ie: snmpget,
snmpwalk ,etc...) for some reason.
So .... since my "snmpd.conf" and "subagent.c" files had "localhost::1610" all
this time, then how come issuing the following "snmpwalk" request "did" return
data for my OC-STB-HOST-MIB table? I mean I am giving the 127.0.0.1 address in
the snmpwalk request but it worked even though the files had the
"localhost::1610" value in it ..... why .... just curious?
snmpwalk -v1 -c mycommunity_ro 127.0.0.1 ocStbHostAVInterfaceTable

No, it's not.
It's listening on a named Unix socket called "localhost:1610".
You embedded box doesn't recognise "localhost" as a hostname.
We've been through this once before.

No, you haven't.
The "snmptranslate" command doesn't go anywhere near the SNMP agent.
It just works with the MIB files directly.

No, you haven't.
See above.
