6 snmpm - Interface functions to the SNMP toolkit manager
7
9 The module snmpm contains interface functions to the SNMP manager.
10
12 The following data types are used in the functions below:
13
14 oid() = [byte()] - The oid() type is used to represent an ASN.1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER
15 snmp_reply() = {error_status(), error_index(), varbinds()}
16 error_status() = noError | atom()
17 error_index() = integer()
18 varbinds() = [varbind()]
19 atl_type() = read | write | read_write
20 target_name() = string() - Is a unique *non-empty* string
21 vars_and_vals() = [var_and_val()]
22 var_and_val() = {oid(), value_type(), value()} | {oid(), value()}
23 value_type() = o ('OBJECT IDENTIFIER') |
24 i ('INTEGER') |
25 u ('Unsigned32') |
26 g ('Unsigned32') |
27 s ('OCTET SRING') |
28 b ('BITS') |
29 ip ('IpAddress') |
30 op ('Opaque') |
31 c32 ('Counter32') |
32 c64 ('Counter64') |
33 tt ('TimeTicks')
34 value() = term()
35 community() = string()
36 sec_model() = any | v1 | v2c | usm
37 sec_name() = string()
38 sec_level() = noAuthNoPriv | authNoPriv | authPriv
39
40
41 See also the data types in snmpa_conf.
42
44 monitor() -> Ref
45
46 Types:
47
48 Ref = reference()
49
50 Monitor the SNMP manager. In case of a crash, the calling (moni‐
51 toring) process will get a 'DOWN' message (see the erlang module
52 for more info).
53
54 demonitor(Ref) -> void()
55
56 Types:
57
58 Ref = reference()
59
60 Turn off monitoring of the SNMP manager.
61
62 notify_started(Timeout) -> Pid
63
64 Types:
65
66 Timeout = integer()
67 Pid = pid()
68
69 Request a notification (message) when the SNMP manager has
70 started.
71
72 The Timeout is the time the request is valid. The value has to
73 be greater then zero.
74
75 The Pid is the process handling the supervision of the SNMP man‐
76 ager start. When the manager has started a completion message
77 will be sent to the client from this process: {snmpm_started,
78 Pid}. If the SNMP manager was not started in time, a timeout
79 message will be sent to the client: {snmpm_start_timeout, Pid}.
80
81 A client application that is dependent on the SNMP manager will
82 use this function in order to be notified of when the manager
83 has started. There are two situations when this is useful:
84
85 * During the start of a system, when a client application
86 could start prior to the SNMP manager but is dependent upon
87 it, and therefor has to wait for it to start.
88
89 * When the SNMP manager has crashed, the dependent client ap‐
90 plication has to wait for the SNMP manager to be restarted
91 before it can reconnect.
92
93 The function returns the pid() of a handler process, that does
94 the supervision on behalf of the client application. Note that
95 the client application is linked to this handler.
96
97 This function is used in conjunction with the monitor function.
98
99 cancel_notify_started(Pid) -> void()
100
101 Types:
102
103 Pid = pid()
104
105 Cancel a previous request to be notified of SNMP manager start.
106

120 Val = term()
121 Reason = term()
122 snmpm_user() = Module implementing the snmpm_user behaviour
123
124 Register the manager entity (=user) responsible for specific
125 agent(s).
126
127 Module is the callback module (snmpm_user behaviour) which will
128 be called whenever something happens (detected agent, incoming
129 reply or incoming trap/notification). Note that this could have
130 already been done as a consequence of the node config. (see
131 users.conf).
132
133 The argument DefaultAgentConfig is used as default values when
134 this user register agents.

165 specific agent(s).
166

168 means that if that process should die, all agents registered by
169 that user process will be unregistered. All outstanding requests
170 will be canceled.
171
172 Module is the callback module (snmpm_user behaviour) which will
173 be called whenever something happens (detected agent, incoming
174 reply or incoming trap/notification). Note that this could have
175 already been done as a consequence of the node config. (see
176 users.conf).
177
178 The argument DefaultAgentConfig is used as default values when
179 this user register agents.

222
223 Explicitly instruct the manager to handle this agent, with
224 UserId as the responsible user.
225
226 Called to instruct the manager that this agent shall be handled.
227 This function is used when the user knows in advance which
228 agents the manager shall handle. Note that there is an alternate
229 way to do the same thing: Add the agent to the manager config
230 files (see agents.conf).
231
232 TargetName is a non-empty string, uniquely identifying the
233 agent.
234
235 The type of Val depends on Item:

414
415 Synchronous get-request.
416
417 Remaining is the remaining time of the given (or default) time‐
418 out time.
419
420 When Reason is {send_failed, ...} it means that the net_if
421 process failed to send the message. This could happen because of
422 any number of reasons, i.e. encoding error. ActualReason is the
423 actual reason in this case.
424
425 The send option extra specifies an opaque data structure passed
426 on to the net-if process. The net-if process included in this
427 application makes, with one exception, no use of this info, so
428 the only use for it in such a option (when using the built in
429 net-if) would be tracing. The one usage exception is: Any tuple
430 with snmpm_extra_info_tag as its first element is reserved for
431 internal use.
432
433 Some of the send options (community, sec_model, sec_name,
434 sec_level and max_message_size) are override options. That is,
435 for this request, they override any configuration done when the
436 agent was registered.
437
438 For SnmpInfo, see the user callback function handle_report.

459
460 The reply, if it arrives, will be delivered to the user through
461 a call to the snmpm_user callback function handle_pdu.
462
463 The send option timeout specifies for how long the request is
464 valid (after which the manager is free to delete it).
465
466 The send option extra specifies an opaque data structure passed
467 on to the net-if process. The net-if process included in this
468 application makes, with one exception, no use of this info, so

649
650 The send option timeout specifies for how long the request is
651 valid (after which the manager is free to delete it).

703
704 When Reason is {send_failed, ...} it means that the net_if
705 process failed to send the message. This could happen because of
706 any number of reasons, i.e. encoding error. ActualReason is the
707 actual reason in this case.

874 must be configured to use the audit trail log function. Please
875 refer to disk_log(3) in Kernel Reference Manual for a descrip‐
876 tion of how to change the log size.
877
878 The change is permanent, as long as the log is not deleted. That

945
946 Transform a alias-name to its oid.
947
948 Note that an alias-name is only unique within the mib, so when
949 loading several mib's into a manager, there might be several in‐
950 stances of the same aliasname.

997 Ref = server | config | net_if | note_store | all
998 Verbosity = verbosity()
999 verbosity() = silence | info | log | debug | trace
1000
1001 Sets verbosity for the designated process. For the lowest ver‐
1002 bosity silence, nothing is printed. The higher the verbosity,
1003 the more is printed.
1004
1005 restart(Ref) -> void()
1006
1007 Types:
1008
1009 Ref = net_if
1010
1011 Restart the indicated process (Ref). Note that its not without
1012 risk to restart a process, and should therefor be used with
1013 care.

1018 Types:
1019
1020 Reason = term()
1021 Prefix = integer() | string()
1022
1023 This utility function is used to create a formatted (pretty
1024 printable) string of the error reason received from either:
1025
1026 * The Reason returned value if any of the sync/async get/get-
1027 next/set/get-bulk functions returns {error, Reason}
1028
1029 * The Reason parameter in the handle_error user callback func‐
1030 tion.
1031
1032 Prefix should either be an indention string (e.g. a list of spa‐
1033 ces) or a positive integer (which will be used to create the in‐
1034 dention string of that length).
