Hi Mikl,
It is strange that the proxy is not aware about what the printer can do, if
I just do exactly the same request from my Linux Device, it works just
fine.
Requesting and caching could be an option, however, on the internet I can
read that just this single line in het snmpd.conf file should make it work.
the command lines I am executing are:
snmpget -c public -v 2c *IPaddress* 1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.5.1.1.1
where the IPaddress is the ipaddres from the linux device or the printer.
I do not have any further source code I guess?? and which binaries do you
mean?
Kevin
