[SNMP4J] Timeouts and Retries behavior.

2008-04-09 Thread varma datla 
Hello Frank,
We are using SNMP4J 1.8.1 to query the SNMP agent and observed the following 
behavior with different timeouts/retries.

Requesting about 20 OIDs and processing responses asynchronously using simple 
implementations of ResponseListener and TreeListener (for WALK) interfaces 
appropriately. 

These timeouts and retries are being set on the CommunityTarget and snmp 
version is set to 1.

Retries  Timeout(ms)  Results
-
3   500100%..got all expected responses.
2   2000  Lost some..mostly involving WALK.
1   5000  Lost even more responses, WALK and the 
rest.

When observed using Wireshark, no response is being sent by the SNMP agent and 
I can see the expected retries and timeouts for the non-responsive OIDs.

More retries with lesser timeout is giving best results. Is this an expected 
behavior? Or could it be a network dependent scenario?

Also wondering, what would be the expected behavior if a TimeoutModel is set on 
the snmp instance and Timeouts/Retries are set on the Target? Which would be 
preferred during the communication?

I appreciate your time and effort.

Thanks,
Varma.

Re: [SNMP4J] Timeouts and Retries behavior.

Hello Varma,

The network and agent performance is decisive
for the optimal timeout/retry strategy.
With a non-default timeout model you can
further optimize the overall performance,
for example, by resending requests
with t=500ms after t/4,t/2,t instead of
after t,t,t which is the default for 3 retries.

Best regards,
Frank
