Hi
SNMP error codes are defined in PDU definition in RFC 1905 (Protocol
Operations for SNMPv2). The header file
"include/net-snmp/library/snmp.h" has these definitions.
I am not sure if user defined errors can be sent in response to snmp
requests.
Regards,
Suresh.

Subject: User defined error
Hi all,
I am doing a agent coding which inturn depends on another layer to
get real time data . If something goes wrong with the underlying layer ,
it needs to display that error message to the manager(client) instead of
the general SNMP error(ie. SNMP_ERR_GENERR ) .
So ,is there a provision to send user defined error string in
net-snmp or the SNMP standard itself doesn't support it ? In which RFC
file, details about these error codes are defined? I have looked into
the some RFC file where i couldn't find these details.
And in net-snmp-5.3.1/include/net-snmp/agent/mfd.h file there is
something like
/*----------------------------------------------------------------------
* 8 flags resevered for the user
*/
#define MFD_ROW_FLAG_USER_1 0x00000001 /* user flag 1 */
#define MFD_ROW_FLAG_USER_2 0x00000002 /* user flag 2 */
#define MFD_ROW_FLAG_USER_3 0x00000004 /* user flag 3 */
#define MFD_ROW_FLAG_USER_4 0x00000008 /* user flag 4 */
#define MFD_ROW_FLAG_USER_5 0x00000010 /* user flag 5 */
#define MFD_ROW_FLAG_USER_6 0x00000020 /* user flag 6 */
#define MFD_ROW_FLAG_USER_7 0x00000040 /* user flag 7 */
#define MFD_ROW_FLAG_USER_8 0x00000080 /* user flag 8 */
#define MFD_ROW_FLAG_USER_MASK 0x000000ff /* user flag mask */
Does these flags mean that there's a option to define our own error
string or something else??
I have seen in the other SNMP package - AdventNet which provides a
facility to send user defined error codes.
Thanks for your suggestions.
Thanks & Regards
Valantina
