That's a limit imposed by the Net-SNMP agent, to try and avoid excessive processing that may well result in too large a response to be returned. > is there anyway that we can increase this limit? $ man snmpd.conf maxGetbulkRepeats NUM Sets the maximum number of responses allowed for a single variable in a getbulk request. Set to 0 to enable the default and set it to -1 to enable unlimited. Because memory is allocated ahead of time, sitting this to unlimited is not considered safe if your user population can not be trusted. A repeat number greater than this will be truncated to this value.
