Hi Jan, I just ran into a problem with this functionality: the ipAddressTable (in the ip-mib code) leaked memory; this is because the table did not allow duplicate IP addresses. I believe the ip-mib is using the ip-addresses as indexes into the table, therefore it is a limitation of the MIB to not allow duplicates (but I am not 100% sure). We were doing some IP tunneling when we encountered this error. Should I post my fixes (diffs) to net-snmp-bugs? or -coders?
