Writing an SNMP Extension Agent

  • Article

To write an extension-agent application

  1. Design the framework structure for the MIB that you want to implement.

  2. Develop an OID parsing strategy to identify incoming variables and locate their description in the internal representation of the MIB.

    This variable description is required to implement access policy, validate data types, identify and validate object instances, and invoke the instrumentation routines.

  3. Write the code that is required to implement the extension agent.

    Note   When you write an extension agent, include in your source code the Snmp.h header file that is included with Windows CE.
