Description
The

routine does not block waiting for a response. The
routine is intended to cause the master agent to reply immediately. The response
should be processed by calling the

If a response is not received within the timeout period, the application code
should restart the eSNMP protocol by calling the
esnmp_init
routine. No timers
are maintained by the eSNMP library.

ESNMP_LIB_OK
The request was sent.
ESNMP_LIB_LOST_
