If, so one round-about way of doing network discovery would be to create a script that repeatedly calls snmpget and displays the output accordingly. I'm not a developer, but I have a feeling that snmpget wasn't designed with multiple requests in mind. i.e. it was meant to query a single agent and quit. -Abraham Varricatt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start uncovering the many advantages of virtual appliances and start using them to simplify application deployment and accelerate your shift to cloud computing. http://p.sf.net/sfu/novell-sfdev2dev _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-users mailing list [email protected] Please see the following page to unsubscribe or change other options: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-users
