The access defined in the MIB is the maximum access, not the minimum. An implementation may not support that level of access. > snmpset -v 2c -c mycomm 127.0.0.1 ip.ipForwarding i 1 , > reutrns: Error in packet.

The agent needs code to support a MIB, you can't just install a MIB text file. That said, the upcoming 5.3 release include support for many of the IP-FORWARD-MIB. -- Robert Story; NET-SNMP Junkie Support: <http://www.net-snmp.org/> <irc://irc.freenode.net/#net-snmp> Archive: <http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=net-snmp-users> You are lost in a twisty maze of little standards, all different. ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
