The Net-SNMP library(3)

NAME
The Net-SNMP library -

  Modules
groupasn1 parsing and datatype manipulation routines.
groupA generic callback mechanism
groupgeneric linked-list data handling with a string as a key.
groupstorage space for defaults
The purpose of the default storage is three-fold:.

groupmib parsing and datatype manipulation routines.
groupStore and retrieve data referenced by an OID.
This is essentially a way of storing data associated with a given OID.

groupparsing various configuration files at run time
The read_config related functions are a fairly extensible system of parsing various configuration files at the run time.

groupgeneric library based alarm timers for various parts of an application
groupvarious PDU processing routines
groupgeneric logging for net-snmp
groupMemory Utility Routines

  int init_agent (const char * app)

Initialize the agent. Calls into init_agent_read_config to set tha app's configuration file in the appropriate default storage space, NETSNMP_DS_LIB_APPTYPE. Need to call init_agent before calling init_snmp.

Parameters:
    app the configuration file to be read in, gets stored in default storage

Returns:
    Returns non-zero on failure and zero on success.

  void init_snmp (const char * type)

Calls the functions to do config file loading and mib module parsing in the correct order. Parameters:
    type label for the config file 'type'

Returns:
    void

  int netsnmp_oid_equals (const oid * in_name1, size_t len1, const oid * in_name2, size_t len2)

Compares 2 OIDs to determine if they are exactly equal. This should be faster than doing a snmp_oid_compare for different length OIDs, since the length is checked first and if != returns immediately. Might be very slighly faster if lengths are ==.

Parameters:
    in_name1 A pointer to the first oid.
    len1 length of the first OID (in segments, not bytes)
    in_name2 A pointer to the second oid.
    len2 length of the second OID (in segments, not bytes)

Returns:
    0 if they are equal, 1 if they are not.

  int netsnmp_oid_find_prefix (const oid * in_name1, size_t len1, const oid * in_name2, size_t len2)

Given two OIDs, determine the common prefix to them both. Parameters:
    in_name1 A pointer to the first oid.
    len1 Length of the first oid.
    in_name2 A pointer to the second oid.
    len2 Length of the second oid.

Returns:
    length of largest common index of commonality. 1 = first, 0 if none * or -1 on error.

  int netsnmp_oid_is_subtree (const oid * in_name1, size_t len1, const oid * in_name2, size_t len2)

Identical to netsnmp_oid_equals, except only the length up to len1 is compared. Functionally, this determines if in_name2 is equal or a subtree of in_name1

Parameters:
    in_name1 A pointer to the first oid.
    len1 length of the first OID (in segments, not bytes)
    in_name2 A pointer to the second oid.
    len2 length of the second OID (in segments, not bytes)

Returns:
    0 if one is a common prefix of the other.

  int snmp_oid_compare (const oid * in_name1, size_t len1, const oid * in_name2, size_t len2)

lexicographical compare two object identifiers. Caution: this method is called often by command responder applications (ie, agent).

Returns:
    -1 if name1 < name2, 0 if name1 = name2, 1 if name1 > name2

  int snmp_oidtree_compare (const oid * in_name1, size_t len1, const oid * in_name2, size_t len2)

Compares 2 OIDs to determine if they are equal up until the shortest length. Parameters:
    in_name1 A pointer to the first oid.
    len1 length of the first OID (in segments, not bytes)
    in_name2 A pointer to the second oid.
    len2 length of the second OID (in segments, not bytes)

Returns:
    0 if they are equal, 1 if in_name1 is > in_name2, or -1 if <.
