SNMP--Simple Network Management

The snmp library is a Tcl interface for SNMP (simple network management protocol) as implemented on IRIX 6.2. The snmp library is self-initializing: the first time you call one of its library procedures, SGITCL does a dlopen of libsnmp.so.

These are the supported SNMP library procedures:

snmpget

retrieve a list of hostnames and SNMP variables

snmpgetnext

get the next hostname variable in a list

snmpgettable

retrieve a simple value or an SNMP table

snmpresolve

return the appropriate IP address of a given hostname

snmpping

return round-trip time for ICMP echo request (requires root privilege)
For more information about procedures in the snmp library, use the Tcl help facility:

sgitcl> help snmp/snmpping
