Many of the MIB modules shipped with the Net-SNMP agent still
use the v4 "traditional" MIB module API, but an increasing number
use one of the newer v5 helper-based handlers. All of these can
be found under agent/mibgroup
The tdata helper is used in the new DisMan Event,
Expression and Schedule MIB modules
(see disman/{event,expr,schedule}/*).
The similar dataset helper is used in the older DisMan Event
MIB implementation (see disman/mteEvent*)
and the Notification Log MIB (see notification-log-mib/*),
used by snmptrapd to log incoming traps.
The basic iterator handler is used in
the TCP and UDP table implementations (mibII/tcpTable &
mibII/udpTable), VACM context handling (mibII/vacm_context) and
various tables relating to agent internals (agent/*).
These show
a number of different approaches to using the iterator helper, so
it's worth comparing them.
The two examples/netSnmpHostsTable* modules provide a
contrast between the iterator and iterator_access helpers.
There are several examples based on the
MfD framework (see {if,ip,tcp,udp}-mib/). Much of this
code is not intended to be viewed directly, but individual files
are clearly commented to distinguish between internal implementation
and public code.
The Net-SNMP agent does not currently include any MIB modules
using the array-user container-based helper. The best examples
of this are to be found in the net-policy project.
