Using the SNMP Utilities

TCP/IP Services includes the following programs, which are useful for testing applications and for analyzing SNMP problems:

TCPIP$SNMP_REQUEST (MIB browser) (Section 4.1)

TCPIP$SNMP_TRPSND (trap sender) (Section 4.2)

TCPIP$SNMP_TRPRCV (trap receiver) (Section 4.2)

These programs can be invoked by commands that are defined by the SYS$STARTUP:TCPIP$DEFINE_COMMANDS.COM command procedure.

This chapter describes how to use the supplied SNMP utilities.

4.1 Using the MIB Browser

TCP/IP Services provides the snmp_request MIB browser that acts as a simple client to handle single SNMP requests for reading and writing to a MIB. The browser sends SNMP Version 1 and SNMP Version 2 request PDUs to an agent and displays the agent’s response.

To run the MIB browser, follow these steps:

1.Define a foreign command for the program:

$ snmp_request == "$SYS$SYSTEM:TCPIP$SNMP_REQUEST"

Alternatively, you can run the SYS$MANAGER:TCPIP$DEFINE_ COMMANDS.COM procedure to define all the foreign commands available with TCP/IP Services.

2.Enter the command using the following format.

snmp_request agent "community" request_type [flags] variable [data-type value]

Section 4.1.1 describes the parameters. Section 4.1.2 describes the flags.

4.1.1 MIB Browser Parameters

Table 4–1 describes the snmp_request parameters.
