- A recent entry in the Usenet News Group vmsnet.networks.tcp-ip.ucx
- discusses the problems in the UCX V2.0 SNMP Agent. I have
- recently taken over the development and support for the SNMP
- Agent, as a member of the DEC TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS group.
- There are indeed several classes of problems in the SNMP Agent as
- it originally shipped with Version 2.0 of DEC TCP/IP Services for
- OpenVMS. In an effort to provide timely support for customers who
- depend on this service, there is an updated version of the SNMP
- Agent that will be available through the CSC customer suppport
- organization immediately.
-
- This updated version of the Agent offers substantial
- improvements to the reliability and accuracy of the information
- that it provides. In the interest of timeliness, this update
- includes solutions to only the most severe or highest priority
- problems. Additional updates will be provided in the near
- future, distributed via the CSC organization, to respond to
- customer demand. I have been assigned to support, develop and
- enhance SNMP services within the TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS on a
- full time basis. In addition to fixing known problems with the
- product, I am working on plans for enhancements to the
- functionality and security features in the near future.
-
- We apologize for the inconvenience that these problems may have
- caused our customers, and we strongly encourage all customers to
- obtain the updated SNMP Agent from the usual CSC contacts.
