what data type i should use in the SNMP SET.
venkatgiri
Can i know what will be the data type given for the below objects in
SNMP SET.
xyz::= SEQUENCE {
a InetAddressType, MAX-ACCESS read-create
b InetAddress, MAX-ACCESS read-create
d RowStatus, MAX-ACCESS read-create
}
If SNMP SET command given for the object "b", then what data type i
should use.
1. snmpset ..... localhost b.1 s "192.16.10.14 "
or
2. snmpset ......localhost b.1 x oxco100a16
or
3. snmpset ......localhost b.1 a 192.16.10.14
which one of these are correct?

That looks like the most appropriate syntax,
since InetAddress is a binary string type.

Hi,
thanks for the reply, but i have a question on this,
This looks like i am giving extra work to the user who is giving the
SNMP SET command, is this right? If he wants to set an IP address, he
has convert it to network byte order and then give it in binary string.
the data type InetAddress is [octet string of 0 to 255 length], the
agent can covert this to network byte order and store it in the binary
string, is this correct behavior or not?
when the user is given like
snmpset ..... localhost b.1 s "192.16.10.14 "
I don;t the things.

Not quite.
That's the format which the agent is expecting, so the management
application needs to provide the address in this form, yes.
But that doesn't necessarily mean that the *user* needs to worry
about this level of detail. If you are providing a suitable management
interface, then that can accept the address in whatever form is most
convenient, and convert it into the binary format internally.
Remember that the Net-SNMP suite is primarily a programming toolkit
(plus an SNMP agent). We do not claim to provide advanced client
tools - the command line applications are mostly simple low-level
interfaces to the basic protocol operations. If you need anything more,
then you'll need to develop these yourself.

No.
The agent is expecting to *receive* the request in the appropriate format.
That's the responsibility of the client application. You can't push this
responsibility onto the agent.
Remember, this is the *SIMPLE* Network Management Protocol.
This means that what you can ask for is limited, and what you can
expect the agent to do is limited. Anything complicated is the responsibility
of the management applications.
