6.
The following example uses the same command as in example 5, but it
specifies the
-t
flag instead of the
-l
flag. Only OIDs with the prefix
matching the input OID are returned. Note that as with other
getnext
request examples, the value for the input OID is not returned. If an SNMP
Version 2 agent is the server, the results using
getbulk
are identical.
$ snmp_request marley.dec.com "public" getnext -t 1.3.6.1.2.1.1
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0 = 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.2.15.13.7.1
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0 = 1302232 = 0 d 3:37:2
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0 = Sam Spade
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 = marley.dec.com
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.6.0 = Falcon BuildingLos Angeles, CA
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.7.0 = 72
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.8.0 = 0 = 0 d 0:0:0
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.9.1.2.1 = 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.15.3.3.1.1
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.9.1.2.2 = 1.3.6.1.4.1.36.15.3.3.1.2
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.9.1.3.1 = Base o/s agent (OS_MIBS) capabilities
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.9.1.3.2 = Base o/s agent (HR_MIB) capabilities
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.9.1.4.1 = 0 = 0 d 0:0:0
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.9.1.4.2 = 0 = 0 d 0:0:0
7.
The following example shows how to send a
Set
request. The request succeeds
because the command line specifies the correct type for the variable, and all
the conditions for enabling
Set
requests are met on the server.
$ snmp_request marley.dec.com "address_list" -
_$ set 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0 "D" "Richard Blaine"
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0 = Richard Blaine
8.
The following example shows how to display the contents of packets that
are sent and received. Note that only the SNMP-specific portion of the UDP
packets is displayed.
$ snmp_request marley.dec.com "public" get -d 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0

4.2 Using the Trap Sender and Trap Receiver Programs
TCP/IP Services provides the following programs that allow you to set up a
simple client on your system to send and receive trap messages:
•
snmp_trapsnd
(TCPIP$SNMP_TRAPSND.EXE)
Sends SNMP Version 1 and SNMP Version 2 trap messages. Use only for
testing or to send significant state changes that occur on the managed node.
•
snmp_traprcv
(TCPIP$SNMP_TRAPRCV.EXE)
Listens for SNMP trap messages and displays any it receives.
