Hi Berndette,

Maybe you can get good sample programs for GETNEXT here

Subject: GET and GETNEXT Processing



Hello snmp coders and users,

I'm lost please help shed some light.

I have an subagent which registers organization root oid (several tables and 
scalars)
when I run snmpwalk on one of the columns of one of the tables the
net-snmp master agent calls my handler with GETNEXT mode first
and then with GET mode.

my questions:
1 - what am I expected to return for GETNEXT call? Do I return the index of the 
next valid object instance
  or the actual value of the first valid object instance?
2 - if I'm expected to return a value as a reply to GETNEXT call, why then my 
subagent is called again with GET mode?
3 - if I'm expected to return only the index (modified oid?) of the next valid 
instance, do I modify the
 name field of the netsnmp_variable_list struct?

4 - when snmpget command is called on one of the columns of a table do I return 
all the instances of that column? If so do
I create a list of variables by calling snmp_varlist_add_varibale() and return 
back the list?

Thank you for your help
Bernadette
