Hi!
NetSNMP contains several use of a netlink socket to gather information
from the kernel for Linux:
agent/mibgroup/etherlike-mib/data_access/dot3stats_linux.c
agent/mibgroup/if-mib/data_access/interface_linux.c
agent/mibgroup/ip-mib/data_access/arp_netlink.c
agent/mibgroup/ip-mib/data_access/defaultrouter_linux.c
agent/mibgroup/ip-mib/data_access/ipaddress_linux.c
Moreover, dot3stats_linux.c contains functions extract from "libnetlink"
(a "library" included with iproute package). I am about to add a third
use of netlink (to get linkup/linkdown traps without using
DISMAN-EVENT).
We should factor this code in some way. How should this be done? Can the
code be moved inside snmplib/?
