snmp: SNMP Information Base
The Simple Network Management Protocol “snmp” information base
contains variables that describe the transmission and reception of User
Data Protocol (UDP) datagrams delivered to or originated by the SNMP
management agent. The structure is the following:
snmp
variables listed below
The pathname is constructed as follows:
snmp.variable
The variables are listed alphabetically:
snmpbadcommunity contains the number of incoming requests
dropped by the SNMP management agent because either (1) the commu-
nity name was unknown or (2) the originating host was not a member of
a known community.
snmpbadtype contains the number of incoming requests dropped by
the SNMP management agent because the protocol data unit (PDU)
specified an invalid operation code.
snmpinpkts contains the number of User Data Protocol (UDP) data-
grams delivered to the SNMP management agent.
snmpoutpkts contains the number of User Data Protocol (UDP)
datagrams originated by the SNMP management agent.
snmpprocerrs contains the number of syntactically correct SNMP
messages that could not be processed; such messages might request an
unknown variable, contain an invalid instance identification, or contain
a violation of access-control restrictions.
snmptotalrequested contains the total number of individual
variables whose values have been requested in incoming SNMP PDUs.
An approximation of the number of variables requested in each SNMP
PDU can be computed by dividing snmptotalrequested by
snmpinpkts.
