Thanks Dave. I saw the FAQ and that had the solution. Now I can set the IP
for Alert destination for object ...AlertDestinationIP
snmpset -v1 -c public 192.168.2.112 OID a 192.168.2.152
Here type 'a' is of type IPaddress. once the agent will start to support
ipv6, I will try to set ipv6 and find if type 'a' supports that.
One other main thing is I have an agent where snmp is implemented. How do I
find how the MIB data are represented - table or file. where might the data
retrieving method be located - agent C file or where? How are the dynamic
values of my private mib variables retrieved when I use an snmpget from a
manager?
help!!! Thanks so much,
Karthika.
