UCD-SNMP Tutorial -- Toolkit

Note: Much of this tutorial requires ucd-snmp-4.2.2 or higher!, so make sure you get it before running the commands found in this tutorial.

Note: A new tutorial for net-snmp 5.0 and above is available as well. The commands is the ucd-snmp specific tutorial will not work as expected if you are using net-snmp and not ucd-snmp.

The examples found below should give you enough of a starting point to begin developing simple programs using the ucd-snmp libraries. Here are the files that we are going to talk about and generate:

File	Description
Makefile	A simple makefile used to build the projects
snmpdemoapp.c	The sample application code
asyncapp.c	The asynchronous application code
UCD-SNMP-TUTORIAL-MIB.txt	The MIB we'll be writing code for
ustScalarSet.h	The mib module's header file
ustScalarSet.c	The mib module's C source code
ustMain.c	The main() code for a demon we'll be writing

Note: of these demonstrations required ucd-snmp-4.1 or higher.
