Re: SNMPget cmd fails with Timeout from CentOS but works fine from windows

What net-snmp version on Windows and CentOS?  We had trouble with a bunch of PDUs when we upgraded to net-snmp 5.7.1, as the default for retries on the client side became 0, and it turns out that for these boxes, retrying requests was a fact of life.

If you had 5.7.1 on CentOS, but an earlier version on Windows, this change might explain what you're seeing.

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure 
contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, 
security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this 
data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
