Re: error on subcontainer '' insert (-1)

Dave,


I found out why the error occured, but I want to confirm it before I
start a solution,
The error comes from the CONTAINER_INSERT call in
netsnmp_ioctl_ipaddress_container_load_v4


It only happened to the interfaces which have the same IP address, it
does not make sense  to have the same IP on two ethernet interfaces,
but it is common practical for PPP interfaces in PPPOA/PPPOE world as
shown below, which two ppp interfaces are sharing 10.10.10.142


ppp2675   Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
          inet addr:10.10.10.142  P-t-P:10.0.0.5  Mask:255.255.255.255
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1492  Metric:1
          RX packets:3 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:3 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:3
          RX bytes:114 (114.0 b)  TX bytes:30 (30.0 b)

ppp5306   Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
          inet addr:10.10.10.142  P-t-P:10.0.0.4  Mask:255.255.255.255
          UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST  MTU:1492  Metric:1
          RX packets:3 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:3 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:3
          RX bytes:114 (114.0 b)  TX bytes:30 (30.0 b)



so I have to confirm the bug from u,

Three questions:

1. Why NET-SNMP agent keep calling CONTAINER-INSERT when no snmp
request was made?
2. Is there  any quick way to fix the bug above if it is confirmed?

3. Is it possible to disable ip-MIB to stop the CONATINER_INSERT call?


Please let me know what is your thoughts?


Many thanks!
