We are about to incorporate IPV6 into our network switching products. I have been working on net-snmp vs 5.3.0.1 for the past several years, adding in our specific needs for our hardware, enterprise mibs, fixing some bugs etc.
I am pushing for us to move to the latest available version of net-snmp to
capture the
past few years of bug fixes, improvements etc. I would also expect the
IPV6 support
would be more advanced in the later version and I saw the posts about
including it by
default soon.
My question is what are the plans for 5.5. I see that 5.4 was release in
Aug last year so
given past history am thinking that 5.5 may not be that far off. I expect
it will take me
over a month to port my changes forward, some of which have been long ago
fixed
such as ifNumber support and some memory leaks. I would not want to do
all the work and
then have 5.5 release as soon as I am completed. I may have the option
of delaying
the port for a little while but not for more than a few months.
Any guidance on this topic would be extremely helpful.
Also, I have been remiss in posting my bug fixes due to extreme product
launch
schedule pressures. My intention is to post whatever fixes I have after
porting to 5.4-5.5
and incorporating all that has occurred since 5.3.0.1
Cheers,
tjs
