Welcome to NetSNMP!
I have the following questions regarding NetSNMP -
1. We need to allow our users to configure new managers through a GUI,
instead of manually editing the conf files. Is there any API available
to programmatically add new managers?
There is no GUI. You'll need to have some initial configuration set up
in the config files- this can be accomplished using the snmpconf
<http://www.net-snmp.org/docs/man/snmpconf.html> command line utility on
the local machine.
Once there is an initial configuration, you can use the snmpusm
<http://www.net-snmp.org/docs/man/snmpusm.html> and snmpvacm
<http://www.net-snmp.org/docs/man/snmpvacm.html> command line utilities
from a remote machine to simplify the process of adding new managers.
Alternatively, you can create your own Snmp-Set-Requests to accomplish
the same.
2. What is the use of SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB and SNMP-TARGET-MIB? Is
this used for v3 support? How are these MIBs used for sending
notifications through NetSNMP?
You are definitely on the right track here- the MIB modules contained in
RFC 3413 are used for setting up new managers and for establishing
notification sinks for NetSNMP. See the RFC for additional information.
I would greatly appreciate any help in resolving these queries.
Thanks.
I hope this resolves your queries. If not, I'm sure you'll post again ;-)
Regards,
Mark
