Our MIB file comes from a standards committee outside of our company so we have
no control what goes into the MIB file. Our subagent's code is generated from
this MIB file (of course) and we simply can not provide certain data which
might be requested at this time. Currently, I am simply returning
SNMP_NOSUCHINSTANCE from the scalar GET routine for those scalar values we can
not provide.
Example:
Lets say I run the mib2c tool using the scalar configuration file and it
generates the ".c/.h" code files for me. Inside the ".c" file there are three
GET routines. Two of these GET routines I will be able to obtain data to
return but for one of those GET routines we will not be able to get any valid
data at this time. I am trying to figure out what do return when no data is
available for one GET routine.
What do you mean about registering an object? Is this a way of indicating
which scalar value GET routine should not be called at all? Is there an
example of registering an object?
I know for the MfD tables (based on a tutorial I read) I can create a
"valid_columns" array which lists the Enum values of the table fields which are
supported. As a result, for tables, I believe I can exclude certain columns,
however, I am not sure how to do this for certain scalar GET routines.

best way to handle a SNMP request from the real world asking for this data?
How about simply not registering the object?
