I have code which calls USM.removeEngineTime(engineID) that I use to enable the re-discovery process again for a device with which my SNMP manager has lost communications. This works for several devices. But one device has problems.
If I call USM.removeEngineTime(engineID) for this device before it comes back up, when it does come back up the requests go out with a reboots parameter of 0 but with a time parameter > 0 indicating the time since the call to removeEngineTime. The device does not respond to this. If I do another removeEngineTime after the device comes back up the time security parameter is 0 as well as the reboots parameter and it works. The problem is that I don't know when the device comes back up since it does not send a trap or notification indicating this. When I call my function (resetUsmUser(securityName)) it resets all TimeTableEntries with securityName even if the entry is not the localized one for the device having the problem. I have a number of like devices using the same USM security name and passphrases. I would prefer the ones still up not have to go through the discovery process as well. I would like to be able to set the reboots, time for the request to 0 just for a particular request going to the particular device. Is there a way to do this with SNMP4J? Is there a away in the SNMP4J API to tell which localized UserTableEntry belongs to a particular device (USM discovery process enabled)?
