Table 4–2 (Cont.) Flags for the snmp_request Command

 

 

Flag

Description

 

 

-ssleep_interval

Specifies the number of seconds between iterations of sending a request

 

(for the -rflag) and listening for a reply (for the -i) flag. The default is

 

1 second. This flag is ignored if neither the -rflag nor the -iflag are

 

specified.

 

The -sflag is useful for specifying a time to wait between resends, which

 

might be necessary when a server agent is starting up.

-t

Specifies tree mode. Valid only if request-typeis GetNext or GetBulk

 

(where flag n is set to 0 and flag m is set to a number greater than 0).

 

Similar to the -lflag. Directs the agent to perform a MIB walk for the

 

subtree with the variable_name as its root. The program reads and prints

 

responses and issues requests until the agent has no more data for the

 

specified subtree, times out, or is interrupted by a user.

-vversion

Specifies the SNMP version to use for sending the PDU. The versions are:

 

2c or 1 (default). Not case sensitive. You can specify the flag without a

 

space (-v2cand -v1).

 

If request_type is getbulk, the version defaults to SNMP Version 2.

 

If you specify -v 2c to send a message to an SNMP Version 1 agent or

 

subagent, it is unlikely to respond.

-wmax_wait

Specifies the maximum seconds the snmp_request program waits for a

 

reply before timing out. Cannot be 0. The default is 3.

 

 

The -i, -r, and -sflags apply to individual queries. If you specify the -lor -tflags also, the values for the -i, -r, and -sflags are applied to each iteration.
