Hello,


I'm using 5.6.2* version of net-snmp, configured to proxy a subset of OID's 
to another SNMP agent (not net-snmp).  This other agent does support version 
2c of SNMP.  Is there a way to not have the BULKGET requests not converted to 
GETNEXT requests?



If not, perhaps you can help resolve or at least explain what I am seeing.  
My net-snmp snmpd receives a BULKGET request on an OID within a table of the 
MIB supported by the other agent.  The request does not seem to indicate how 
many responses he can support, so snmpd sends enough GETNEXT requests to get 
through the entire MIB supported by the other agent.  When the GETNEXT of the 
final OID of the MIB is received, the other agent responds with a "no such 
value" response. 



When using iReasoning's MIB browser talking to snmpd to interrogate the MIB, 
using BULKGET, no OID's are displayed, just a  "No such name" error. Doing a 
BULKGET directly to the other agent, I see the contents of the MIB.



If I use snmpbulkget through snmpd, all I get is "End of Mib".  If I use 
snmpbulkget directly to the other agent, I see the OIDs up to the end of the 
MIB, followed by an "No more variables left in this MIB View".



Again, ideally I'd be able to have the BULKGET forwarded to the other agent, 
but if that isn't possible, I need to fix this other issue.  I don't own the 
code of the other agent, so if that is the bug...  I'll cross that when I get 
there.



Thanks for your help!



Mike
