Hi,
i'm relatively new to Net::SNMP, I have experience doing SNMP stuff
with Tcl/Scotty. Scotty has a nice feature which allows normal users
to receive copies of trap messages sent to the host the script runs
on, via the use of a small set-UID-root program ("straps") which
distributes the SNMP trap messages via a local socket to each user.
This allows the user to implement trap-directed polling, which I think
was part of the original management model of SNMP. However, I could
not find anything which would immediately allow me to implement the
same with a perl process using Net::SNMP.
On the TODO / Projects list for Net::SNMP at
http://www.net-snmp.org/dev/projects.html
I find "Traps: Threaded handler", which presumably would mean a trap
handler which could be used to gether with non-blocking reqests and
the event loop implemented by snmp_dispatcher()?
Best regards,
- Håvard
