Windows Perl on Net-SNMP?
Hiya, Been trying to build this windows Net-SNMP perl version. I downloaded ActivePerl which was fine for performing get and set operations. However I wanted to use the mib2c command to generate the templates however this requires the Net-SNMP perl installation. Can somebody point to or offer some simple instruction on how to build this blighter.

Re: Windows and Net-SNMP
Much appreciated everyone. Changing the snmpd.conf helped and also using sysUpTime.0 cracked it for me. Thanks now for the real work on this. Cheers, garyc --- Juan Silva [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello Gary ! My first suggestion will be to test the command using the actual OID number, and sysUpTime.0 (instead of sysUpTime), just in case. The tutorial uses system.sysUpTime.0 for your command. ( http://www.net-snmp.org/tutorial/tutorial-5/commands/snmpget.html ) The Retrieving a Single MIB Value and Retrieving Multiple MIB Values sections in Chapter 7 of O'reilly's Essential SNMP book, second edition, include sample commands and perl scripts that I found the most useful to test Net-SNMP. You probably have seen those already. My second suggestion would be to restart the NetSNMP agent to make sure your changes to config are implemented. Not sure if this will fix your problem, but double check just in case. It is a simple fix but can save you time if this is it. If the restart does not work for you, I would recommend you double check the code in your config files and file locations. Regarding the restart of the SNMP agent, I was also getting errors after making configuration changes because I had not restarted the SNMP agent (I describe below how to restart it, so you can give it a try). Note: I believe it was not needed to reboot Windows. After installation you need to go to the Windows Control Panel -- Administrative Tools -- Services. There scroll down until you find the NetSNMP Agent. If it reads Started, right-click on it and select Stop. It will take just a few seconds. After is has been stopped, right-click again and select Start. Else, if it does not read Started, right-click and select Start. Then try your command again. Hope this helps...

If you are looking to *extend* the agent (which wasn't clear from your original message), then you'll need to work with a source distribution. You can either use cygwin (or MinGW) and run configure to add the new MIBs - just as you would under Linux. Or you can use Visual C++, and add the new MIB modules to the relevant project. There's instructions as to how to do this in the file README.win32.

Hello All,
Ha-hum! please read the FAQ this is an excellent starting point to
understand what the hell is
going on. The simplest approach at least I found, was to your construct
MIB
table entries using ASN.1 notation and then use the magical mib2c to
construct your tables into c template code. This is also explained in the
FAQ.

Re: Deletion of rows from tables
Robert, The point is that I was trying to understand where and how I can delete a row from a MIB entry since there is no documentation on this issue. I simply tried to trace how rows get inserted and how they get removed. GC When I delete a row there are of course multiple containers within the list GC when I only added one entry hence the failed error message. I don't follow your logic here. If there are multiple containers, insert would have added the row to all of them, and thus it needs to be removed from all of them. Yes its a little fuzzy. The row index gets added to multiple containers when I insert a row. If you are not using the secondary container, I suggest you undefine the macro controlling its use (eg myTable_IDX2, defined in the header file). Ahh thats the answer.Would really like to of known that.

GC one is called CONTAINER_REMOVE and one is called CONTAINER_INSERT GC .Within the insert function inserts the row of the table into a linked list GC and then gets the next ptr of the table. This is to allow a container to have multiple sort orders. For example, being sorted by the MIB index (maybe an integer) and a string (like a name).

Re: Cannot Process SNMP Traps
Hello,
Only the first line of the snmptrapd.conf is relevant. Its the coldstart
trap. You need to remove the rest.
I'm too idle. The trap.pl is the script which trapd will call when it
receives the coldStart trap after
you initialised your agent correctly. The trap.pl will dump the trap
information to a text file correctly.
Thanks,
Garyc

It looks like your script is not processing the output of snmptrapd

try the following snmptrapd.conf and traphandle.sh, it should work. The

Mib row deletion
Hello, A quick question on deleting mibs. I'm using mib2c to generate the c code. All very dandy except I'm not on exactly how to remove rows from the table. I thought I could use CONTAINER_REMOVE(sig.container,row_ctx); This does indeed remove the row from the mib table however I'm seeing an error in the snmpd log: error on subcontainer remove (-1) Now I take it I'm doing something wrong. Whats the procedure for removing a row_entry? Much appreciated, Garyc --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

Re: Using persistent file as config file
Hello, To append what Robert stated. Yes of course you can do this. Basically ( I hate using that word but at this time it seems appropriate) you will register a callback function which is associated to a token. The token eg a unique string pattern will exist in the persistence file i.e snmpd.conf in /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf. You need to register a callback function. An example of how to do this can be seen /agent/mibgroup/mibII/system_mib.c. This was my starting point. The function of interest is: snmpd_register_config_handler(token,CallbackFunction,NULL,NULL); This callback function is called when the agent identifies the presence of the token. Of course the callback function is something you will create and not something provided from mib template generation.

Re: Sending traps in another thread
Download of Image to hardware When a set request is received by the agent to download an image to hardware a function call is made to download.

Re: Sending traps in another thread
Hi, Wow! I'm blessed one of the gurus. Ok no problem. What platform are you using? The OS platform is Redhat 9. Complete installation. If you do a partial installation your going to hit all sorts of missing libraries. Quite funny when you only do a regular installationnot. - What threading mechanism are you using? I'm using Linux pthread. I'm not a fan of threads having seen the disasters of misuse. But this seemed to be an acceptable solution. The number of threads I use in my application. I link a library which I know uses pthreads which performs alot of the driver functionality to the hardware. However the generated code produced using mib2c I wanted to keep pretty much the same (to avoid additional headaches when changing mibs etc) so I created global object that the table functionality directed requests to. Its within this oject that I created threads. I have only two threads in this global object. One to monitor link up and link downs and to invoke a trap when this happens. Another to send a trap upon the completion of a download or upload to and from the hardware. I dont want to block the main thread so this was a good solution. Have you implemented any locking mechanism? Standard pthread mutexs were used. Is your application an agent Yes my application is an agent. Its controlled either from a perl script which I wrote which uses Dave M.Towns Net::SNMP perl module. Its going to be controlled by a browser which one of our guys are working. Do you call init_snmp()/init_agent() in more than one thread? never. - Are you using methods other than those documented in README.threads in a thread other than the 'main' snmp thread? I would have to read the README documentation on threads. I am using the pthread implementation and including the pthreadlib. And about traps in particular: - What method do you use to send the trap? Manual building and sending using the single-session API, or something like send_easy_trap? It was very easy to perform manual building. Using the notification example you could figure out what was going on. send_v2trap is what I am using.

Packaging of snmpd
Hello, I have a couple of questions: 1) I want the snmpd executable to be self-contained and not dependant on installation of net-snmp. Is this possible. The snmpd excutable resides in nets-snmp5.1.2/agent/.libs and when excuted when net-snmp has been installed everything is starts correctly. When trying to run the snmpd on a separate linux machine it crashed with the underfined symbol net-snmp daemonize. Basically I want to make it very simple for the customer to install and use. 2) The snmpd.conf file is situated in /usr/local/share/snmp. If there is no /usr/local/share/snmp then can the agent point to it using an environment variable. I know SNMPCONFPATH is a way. However this gave me problems when trying to use persistence and was advised to not to set the environment variable. Do I simply ask the user to create a directory /usr/local/share/snmp ?

Is it possible? I'm sure it can be done
My beloved company has asked me to write another agent. Yep no rest for the wicked. They want me to write a net-snmp agent(A) that can send set and get requests to another snmp agent(B) whilst agent(A) can receive set and get requests from the NMS (which I contructed using perl). I went over some of the problems in my head maybe i.e agent configuration file issues and using the application code examples in net-snmp/Apps and integrating that into my agent might be the best approach?

Re: trap question
Hi Dave, What do you mean by pull a link ? My apologies. On our board we have optical fibers referred to as links. When a link is pulled its state changes from IN-SERVICE to OUT-OF-SERVICE.

I thought I could just set a value and a trap would be triggered. Is there documentation or a code example of how I can generate a trap? How do I trigger trap generation?

trap question
Hello, 1) Start snmptrapd 2) Start snmpd 3) Perl script is fired and I dump the coldStart data to a file which is what I expect to see. 4) Pull a link which has an associated MIB oid type of NOTIFICATION_TYPE 5) The link oid exists in the snmptrapd.conf file I see that thesnmptrapd does indeed register with the correct callback function for the link oid. So if I set a value in the NOTIFICATION object should I see a trap being sent? Is there any stage I'm missing here? I gave the link oid the same type as NOTIFICATION_TYPE. Is there an example where I see this in action. Thanks, Garyc --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?

The question I GC GC have is where do I begin with the master agent? GC GC hhh The agent is a master agent [...] GC GC My apologies terminology. In my design the snmp agent would be the subagent GC on the line card. The master agent would be an NMS. I'm still not clear here. First, we need to establish what an agent is. An responds to requests from a manager. If an agent receives requests and sends them to another process for processing, then that agent is also a master agent. (Assuming the two processes communicate via a sub-agent protocol, like AgentX or SMUX. If it simply sends a SNMP request to the other process, then it is a proxy agent, not a master agent). So if you have a device that has line cards, a management station (NMS) would probably send SNMP requests to the device. The agent on the device would then communicate with the line cards, then generate a response to send back to the NMS. GC What I would like to know is the approach needed to design an NMS that can GC be used with the agent? I hope that sounds clearer. Well, that's a rather broad question. You have a MIB for your device, and the protocol to communicate with the device. The NMS is basically a GUI wrapper around the protocol. You should design it in a way that makes sense for your device. From the SNMP perspective, the important thing is that you have a well thought out MIB, so that the device can be monitored and/or managed by any generic NMS, not just yours. -- Robert Story; NET-SNMP Junkie http://www.net-snmp.org/ irc://irc.freenode.net/#net-snmp Archive: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=net-snmp-users You are lost in a twisty maze of little standards, all different. --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: IT Product Guide on ITManagersJournal Use IT products in your business?

Re: Adding traps
Hello,
The problem I'm seeing is that the snmptrapd.conf I dont think is being
accessed due to the script not being ran.
The snmptrapd.conf: now contains the following which Dave recommended:
traphandle .1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.1 /usr/bin/perl
/usr/local/share/snmp/cold.pl
I then used the following cold.pl perl script:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
print At last the coldStart handler is alive!!\n;
sub getline()
{
while (STDIN)
{
my $line =$_;
chomp ($line);
print $line;
}
}
sub main()
{
getline();
}
main();
Simple. It accepts lines from STDIN and prints them out. This looks ok?
So if I dont see any output line I dont think the configuration is being
accessed.
Can somebody enlighten me on this? Is it an environment issue, if so how can
I determine this?
The snmptrapd.conf is located in /usr/local/share/snmp.
I'm running the trapd and it does receive the coldStart trap I just dont see
my script being ran.

Garyc

Re: Newbie : New MIB
Hiya, What I did when trying (still trying) to understand this baby was fill it with trace. There are examples already in the code. However run the snmpd agent with -d or -D this will dump allow you to see some action. See the log file in /var/net-snmp/snmpd.log. Providing you have built everything correctly you should be able to perform snmpset and snmpget requests on the oid. Note you need to fill the template code with your specific needs. In its present state it will have the capability of allowing get and set requests but may need embellishing. But its upto to you to build the persistence and create your own data structures to manage the contexts.

Being persistent with persistence
Hello, Ok I messed up somewhere. Just dont know where. I think its an environment variable issue? I have been using persistence. Extracting tokens and creating oids in my MIB tree and all is well. Then I did something which has caused my environment to change. I cannot get persistence to load again. Here is what I am doing: ./configure --with-mib-modules=psb_test make Everything builds fine and I can perform set and get requests on the oid. I register the app handler and create a function that should be called. snmpd_register_config_handler(myFredToken,parse_func,NULL,NULL); I manully modify the /var/snmpd.conf to contain: myfredToken 1 I dont see my parse function being called. I enabled trace and saw that the token is getting registered however no callback is made. This is probably going to be blatently obvious to the net-snmp gurus, myself a humble novice has been stumped. However I think its my configuration environment. Likely SNMPCONFPATH environment variable? I use snmpconf -g basic_setup. This produces the snmpd.conf configuration. I point the SNMPCONFPATH to /usr/local/share/snmp? Is this OK. If anybody can shed some light on this blind fellow much appreciated and promise to return help if I can.

Policy for commiting mibs?
Hello, Is there a policy for commiting MIBS to persistence in net-snmp. At the moment all SET actions are followed by a COMMIT. I then cycle through the columns of the row and insert them into the persistence file. Not really what I should be doing. Only when a selected field is set (i.e FLAG_COMMIT) should I commit the entries to persistence? I know this could be a potential solution. However is that what is generally adopted and accepted?

cool totally cool
Hi, I was advised to stick with the current approach of generating template code and filling the code out to get persistence to work. Basically I can save the mib to a persistence file and reload the persistence into the mib. When set requests are performed the agent updates the mib and the persistence file. Thanks for the advice I now have a mib loaded into the trees, matching the contents of the persistence. Its so cool. I'm having one of those rare engineering moments that what I'm doing is worthwhile. Much appreciated, Garyc --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.

Generated templates
Hello, I have generated the templates using the mib2c command. I initially chose to use the templates that contained tables which are contained in internal memory. When the agent dies...the tables die without any persistence. Having tried out the get and set routines which work like a charm on the tables on those tables. I would like to use persistence for the MIBS and need some advice on this. I would like to still use the internal memory table generated code and simply add extensions to this code so that I can add close a file. Is there a standard procedure for creating persistence?

walking snmpd
hello, I am running Linux version 9 with version 5.1.1 of net-snmp. I have added and built the MIB and included it into the directory /usr/local/share/snmp directory. Generated the templates successfully and moved them into mibgroup and created the top header with the config_require(mibfiles.c) etc. Performed ./configure and performed make. Ok I am using the snmpd -d to debug whats happenning. When I perform snmpwalk -v 1 -c erlang local host .1.3.6.1.2.1.6.15 I see the the snmp daemon Receiving a get request and sending a response to the local machine: TCP-MIB::tcpOutRsts.0 = counter32: 2 Marvelous. Just what I expected. Ok when I try to do the same with myMib. I see the snmp daemon receive and send but I dont see anything on my machine. The snmptranslate for the given OID works fine though. Questions do I have to perform a set on an entry within the MIB prior to performing the snmpwalk command? Is there a stage I have missed? Cheers, Garyc --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by OSTG.

UnLinked OID
Hello, Ok I read the FAQ on UnLinked OID and even though its a relevant definition I dont think it relates to the problem I am seeing. I am basically building a simple table,populate all the object elements etc and then run mib2c. It goes ahead and constructs the templates and kindly asks me to fill the functionality. When I alter a name of an element in the table and make the correct changes to the MIB. It then throws out the complaint of UnLinked OID. When I revert back to the original change it then happily goes ahead and regenerates the templates. What I'm gathering its already performed some storage and is getting confused when another another attempt is made to generate the code. Where can I remove the stale objects? Much apprecaited, Garyc
