Hello,
I installed recently the 5.2 release of NetSNMP.
I'm trying to use the perl module, but not as an embedded agent.
Thus, I instantiate an NetSNMP::agent as it follows.
use SNMP;
use NetSNMP::agent;
# SNMP::initMib(); #
line 1
# SNMP::addMibFiles("/path/to/my/mib/file.txt") # line 2
my $agent= new NetSNMP::agent(Name => 'myAgent');
$agent->register('myAgent', 'ucdavis', sub { print "In handler\n"; });
my $goOn= 1;
$SIG{'INT'}= sub { $goOn= 0; };
while ($goOn) {
$agent->agent_check_and_process(0);
sleep(1);
}
exit(0);
If line 1 and line 2 are set as comments, the agent is correctly launched, and
it starts to listen for connections on the port specified in the
$SNMPCONFPATH/myAgent.conf. If I uncomment line 1, or line 2, or both, the
configuration file $SNMPCONFPATH/myAgent.conf is not read, and the agent starts
listening on the 161 port (if it can, i.e. if the script is launched as root).
It's a bit odd, and embarrassing. Indeed, if I want to make the agent handle
requests for an oid which is not in the mib files automatically loaded, I have
to ask SNMP to load the mib which contains this oid, and thus to use the
SNMP::addMibFiles function. Doing this, as I wrote it above, apparently
prevents SNMP to read the $SNMPCONFPATH/myAgent.conf configuration file.
Thanks for your help
