Hello List,
If the SNMP Agent
does not get responses from SNMP SubAgent for a preconfigured number of times
with in a specied of time, SNMP Agent will declare that SubAgent as
dead/not responding. When I digged into the code, I observed that, at the
SNMP Agent, it is releasing the session information. It is not sending
AGENTX_CLOSE message to the SubAgent. But SNMP Agent will not forward any
SNMP requests to this SubAgent. Is this understanding correct?
2. But the
SNMP Agent continues to respond to the PING PDUs of the SubAgent. Is
there any way that a SubAgent can detect the above mentioned scenario (that SNMP
Agent has marked me as NOT RESPONDING/DEAD)?
Please clarify
me.
Thank you,
Mahesh
