Thank you for your reply, Anders. I created an agentx.conf file with this single line:
agentxPingInterval 5 I tried putting agentx.conf into one the following directories to no avail: /var/agentx/ /var/snmp/ Var/net-snmp/ Where should the agentx.conf file go? I did a search on this topic and couldn’t find an answer. It is still 15 seconds of disconnection.

AgentX master disconnected us, reconnecting in 15 I would like to reduce this time to 5 seconds. Is this time specifieded in agentXPingInterval as described here? http://www.net-snmp.org/docs/man/snmpd.conf.html However if I add agentXPingInterval 5 to the snmpd.conf file, I get this error: /var/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 35: Warning: Unknown token:agentXPingInterval. I found this code in agentx_config.c which leads me to believe that this value is hardcoded and not set in any configuration file. So changing it requires editing and recompile of the code. #ifdef USING_AGENTX_SUBAGENT_MODULE /* * tokens for master agent */ if (SUB_AGENT == agent_role) { /* * set up callbacks to initiate master agent pings for this session */ netsnmp_ds_register_config(ASN_INTEGER, netsnmp_ds_get_string(NETSNMP_DS_LIBRARY_ID, NETSNMP_DS_LIB_APPTYPE), "agentxPingInterval", NETSNMP_DS_APPLICATION_ID, NETSNMP_DS_AGENT_AGENTX_PING_INTERVAL); /* ping and/or reconnect by default every 15 seconds */ netsnmp_ds_set_int(NETSNMP_DS_APPLICATION_ID, NETSNMP_DS_AGENT_AGENTX_PING_INTERVAL, 15); } #endif /* USING_AGENTX_SUBAGENT_MODULE */ Thanks, Mostafa _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-users mailing list Net-snmp-users@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:Net-snmp-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Please see the following page to unsubscribe or change other options: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-users
