Re: How to configure net-snmp to expose the agentx_send_ping() function

Hi Larry,

I don't have a direct answer to your question: I don't know if there's a
way to call agentx_send_ping() from your own subagent.  But, I can share
what works for me to check if the session is established, which is to check
if "main_session != NULL".  main_session is defined in
<net-snmp/agent/snmp_agent.h>.
