Hi All,

I believed that sysUpTime is counter that increments  every seconds. But In
net-snmp code ,
 sysUpTime being calculated as difference between 'snmpd-starttime' and
'current time' .

I would like to know reason for sysUpTime been calculated as difference in
time instead of incremental-counter.
Is there any constraints ?


Thank you,
Pushpa Thimmaiah
