Hi all,

I am kinda new for snmp.
I am working on my master thesis. Trying to develop a network management system
using NET-SNMP.

Here is my requirement:

I should be able to change the MIBs by snmpset requests from a management system
via snmp, besides snmpget and snmpwalks. 

For example:

1.Changing the Routing table of the client.
2.Making Interfaces up and Down.
3.Changing the Ipforwarding.
4.Nat entries.... etc



I installed NET-SNMP on opensolaris and Fedora core 9 and started with the basic
snmpv2 configurations. I was not able to set any snmp objects in the client from
command line. I end up with "Object not writable" error message. I have
configured private community with access to the MIB's.

And i would like to know what all Objects support snmpset. I have gone through
the default MIB files comes with NET-SNMP by the distribution installation.

Do i need to write the My own MIB's to achieve the above effect.

And I am in a confusion whether SNMP is good for only monitoring or for
management( able to change from admin console ).

Any help,, ???

Thanks in Advance :)


Regards,

Gangadhar Chalapaka.
