SimpleSnmpTcl
A SNMP Tcl Package
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is used extensively in
managing today's heterogeneous networks. Networking equipment from most
vendors include an SNMP Agent that allows remote retrieval and configuration
of its management data. This management data is defined in Management
Information Base (MIB) files.
SimpleSnmpTcl is an easy to use Tcl package that provides
a set of application commands to communicate with a network management
agent using the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). It supports all
versions of SNMP (v1,v2c and v3). It also supports IPv6 in addition to IPv4.
Using this package, you can quickly create standalone management applications
that use SNMP to retrieve and configure information on agents. A trap interface
is also supported.
The document includes sample scripts that can be used as templates to
create your own applications. The package uses 8.4 version of Tcl.
