Did you add the subagent id as the first index or the last?

I'm not 100% positive, but I don't think this is the case. I just did some quick skimming of the agentx spec, and you don't have to register a complete OID. So if your subagent id is the first index, you should just need to register once per subagent. AS> i have tried to achieve this with "netsnmp_register_instance" No, the instance handler is just for scalars, not tables.

The netsnmp_handler_registration (my_handler) contains the items you'll need to set up for a partial registration (range_subid and range_ubound). See rfc 2741 (6.2.3. The agentx-Register-PDU) for details on range registrations, and netsnmp_table_row_register() for and example of registering a single row. (I think that what you need would be similar, just with one more sub-oid for the sub-agent instance id). AS> i am using net-snmp 5.5. Hmm... If your initial testing doesn't pan out quickly with 5.5, I suggest that you switch to 5.7.x for testing. Once things work with 5.7.x, then you can go back to 5.5 and see if it still works there.
