Hi Coders,
I have a query regarding the SET phases for table objects.
The phases of SET are as follows:
MODE_SET_RESERVE1 0
MODE_SET_RESERVE2 1
MODE_SET_ACTION 2
MODE_SET_COMMIT 3
MODE_SET_FREE 4
MODE_SET_UNDO 5
SCALAR Objects:
When I do SET with multiple varbinds on scalar objects, say for below command.
snmpset -v2c -c private localhost var1.0 i 123 var2.0 s "abcde"
the phases of SET are as follows called from handle_set_loop()
var1 var2
var1 var2
var1 var2
var1 var2
MODE_SET_RESERVE1 -> MODE_SET_RESERVE1 -> MODE_SET_RESERVE2 ->
MODE_SET_RESERVE2 -> MODE_SET_ACTION -> MODE_SET_ACTION -> MODE_SET_COMMIT ->
MODE_SET_COMMIT.
TABLE Objects:
When I do SET with multiple varbinds on Table objects, say for below command,
Snmpset -v2c -c private localhost snmpvar1.1.4.5 i 123 snmpvar2.2.4.5 s
"abcde"
the phases of SET are as follows called from handle_set_loop()
Var1 var1
var1 var1
MODE_SET_RESERVE1 -> MODE_SET_RESERVE2 -> MODE_SET_ACTION -> MODE_SET_COMMIT
Var2 var2
var2 var2
MODE_SET_RESERVE1 -> MODE_SET_RESERVE2 -> MODE_SET_ACTION -> MODE_SET_COMMIT
Here, the SET phases are completed for var1 first and then to var2. If there is
any failure in setting var2, it won't affect the SET on var1.
The phases of SET are different for scalars and table objects. The phases for
scalar objects is as per RFC 3416 but not table objects.
I need to understand whether netsnmp itself has a different SET phase for table
objects and scalar objects or have I done something wrong in coding ?
Appreciate any response.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Madhu
