You can tell the client to wait longer but there is no way to communicate to the agent that you are willing to wait for the data. The best way would be if you could decouple the data generation from the request and cache the data in the agent so that the agent can respond faster. This might mean that you have to change the structure of the data that you are returning and this all depend on what MIB you are realizing. /MF ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-coders mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-coders
