- The files in this directory compromise the 0.9 release of the CMU SNMP
- distribution. This includes the SNMP/ASN.1 library, several client
- applications, an SNMP agent, and supporting documentation.
-
- This code was written with efficiency and portability in mind. The
- applications compile and run on the following systems: IBM PC/RT running ACIS
- Release 3, Sun3/50 running SUNOS 3.5, and the DEC microVax running Ultrix 2.2.
- They are expected to run on any system with a Berkeley socket interface.
-
- The agent compiles into about 10 KB of 68000 code. This distribution includes
- a full agent that runs on a Kinetics FastPath2/3/4, and is built into the KIP
- appletalk/ethernet gateway. The machine independent portions of this agent
- also run on CMU's IBM PC/AT based router.
-
- The applications are designed to be useful in the real world. Snmpstatus
- collects several pieces of information and presents them in a useful format
- and is good for everyday status monitoring. The rest of the tools are simpler,
- but still interpret input and output symbolicly (they can be used without
- referencing the RFC's!).
-
- For instance, snmpstatus returns:
- [128.2.56.220]=>[Kinetics Fastpath2] Up: 1 day, 4:43:31
- Recv/Trans packets - Interface: 262874/39867 | IP 47432/34587
-
- The rest of the applications typically present a variable in a form similar
- to the following:
- Name: interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifType.1
- INTEGER: ethernet-csmacd(6)
-
- For further information, please consult the man pages.
-
- This distribution is coprighted by CMU, but may be use and sold without
- permission. Consult the copyright notices for further information.
-
- The distribution is available by anonymous FTP from the host
- lancaster.andrew.cmu.edu (128.2.13.21) as the files pub/cmu-snmp.9.tar, and
- pub/kip-snmp.9.tar. The former includes the libraries and the applications,
- and the latter is the KIP SNMP agent.
-
- Please direct questions, comments, and bug reports to sw0l+snmp@andrew.cmu.edu.
-
- If you pick up this package, please send me a note to the above address, so
- that I may notify you of future enhancements/changes and additions to the
- set of applications (several are planned).
-
- There is a gateway at CMU running the agent. Feel free to query it. You
- can access as netdev-kbox.cc.cmu.edu (128.2.56.220) with community name
- "public".
