Mingzhou,

Found your input on SNMP manager most helpful for simple inexpensive
polling of SNMP mib variables but details on the syntax would be much
appreciated or at least a reference to where it is documented.

Where are the manager hidden commands documented? There is no help
available on them!

Activation of SNMP manager is defined in snmpprox.html on doc CD but
there is no mention of the syntax for the snmp get, get-next, get-bulk,
set, info hidden commands.

NMS-rtr#snmp get v2c <target-ip> <community> oid <mib>
             get-next
             get-bulk
             set
             info

Some of these want oid some don't.

Many thanks

Peter
