Synchronize access to agent from multiple management consoles

Hi all

In my setup, a specific configuration of my agent is done with sequences of
consecutive SNMP set commands. It is important, that they come all together.

It must not be possible, that another management console can configure
something in between.


How can this be realized? I thought of some 'service bit' which could be
asked for from the different management consoles. If a management console
'has' the service bit, it can configure the agent, if not, set requests are
simply ignored. Problem is, that it might be complicated to check for this
'bit' in every snmp request.. (I could store the IP of the management system
currently accessing the agent for example).


Does netsnmp already have something implemented to achieve this behaviour?


Is there maybe a possibility to achieve it with snmpv3 access configuration?


Many thanks for any ideas

Boris
