That feels like a mis-design to me, and is probably the source of most of your problems. As far as SNMP is concerned, the application *IS* the subagent. The code that deals with detecting new channels (and deleted ones) can communicate directly with the code that implements the MIB. It doesn't have to go through SNMP requests - you can define whatever API calls or data structures are needed. The subagent MIB code can work with the same data structures as the main activity of the application, or hold its own representation of the table - that's up to you. The subagent-master communication is concerned with how the "outside world" interrogates/controls the status of the application. But the internal code isn't limited by that. > ROW Deletion > --------------------- > When user switch offs the channel then the APPLICATION can only > identify the PlayerID of the channel. So how do I handle this. By calling whatever (internal) API you've provided to remove a row from the table. Either manipulating the list of active channels that actually controls the box itself, or searching the subagent's internal copy for the matching playerID, and deleting that row. But you don't have to do this via SNMP SET requests. (And I'm not convinced that the dataset helper is the best choice in this particular case).
