Subject: Net Snmp Commands
In reply to: Anandan 's message, "Networking - Software tools" on 05:41:31 01/10/07 Wed

Here we will describe briefly about snmp commands:
Basic Snmp commands are snmpget, snmpset, snmpgetnext, snmpwalk.
Advanced commands are: snmptable, snmptranslate, snmpnetstat, snmpstatus.
1. Snmpget:
If you have a system running snmp agent, assume its ipAddress as 100.100.100.3 then try this command -
snmpget 100.100.100.3 public .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0
to get the system Description
If you get a wrong message as reply, you might be using a different version, try the following options, you should get reply for atleast one.
snmpget 100.100.100.3 -cpublic .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0
snmpget 100.100.100.3 -v1 -cpublic .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0

One can use the system name if there is no problem with DNS
snmpget -v1 -cpublic xyz.abcCorp.com .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0
Instead of dotted digits for the mib OIDs, one can use prefixes as given below:
snmpget 100.100.100.3 -v1 -cpublic iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.system.sysDescr.0

It is possible to use both numbers and names as given here
snmpget 100.100.100.3 -v1 -cpublic .1.3.6.internet.mgmt.2.1.1.sysDescr.0

Also if the MIB is known, one can do a random-access lookup for unique node names:
snmpget 100.100.100.3 -v1 -cpublic upsBasicIdentModel.0
