pysnmp-apps 0.3.2

PySNMP applications

PySNMP command-line tools

Here is a set of SNMP applications written on top of the PySNMP package (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pysnmp/). Some of these tools mimic their famous Net-SNMP (http://sourceforge.net/projects/net-snmp/) counterparts, while others are designed toward easy integration with other Python applications.

PySNMP command-line tools are written entirely in Python and only rely upon PySNMP package to run (PySNMP requires other Python packages). For MIB resolution services to work for popular MIBs, pysnmp-mibs package should be installed as well.

These tools have been tested on Linux, Solaris, MacOS X and Windows XP, though, they might work on any Python-populated system.

The whole package is distributed under terms and conditions of BSD-style license. See the LICENSE file for details.

INSTALLATION

The pysnmp-apps package is fully distutil’ed, so just type

$ python setup.py install

to install the whole thing.

PySNMP version 4.2 or later is required to run these tools.

OPERATION

The most of PySNMP command-line tools could be run in a similar way as their Net-SNMP counterparts. For example:

$ pysnmpbulkwalk -v3 -u myuser -l authPriv -A myauthkey -X myprivkey localhost system SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = DisplayString: Linux grommit 2.6.16.1 #2 PREEMPT Tue Apr 4 17:04:24 MSD 2006 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux SNMPv2-MIB::sysObjectID.0 = ObjectIdentifier: iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.8072.3.2.101.3.6.1.4.1.8072.3.2.10 SNMPv2-MIB::sysUpTime.0 = TimeTicks: 43 days 1:55:47.85372214785 [ skipped ] SNMPv2-MIB::sysORUpTime.”8” = TimeStamp: 0 days 0:0:0.77 SNMPv2-MIB::sysORUpTime.”9” = TimeStamp: 0 days 0:0:0.77

$ pysnmpget -v3 -u myuser -l authPriv -A myauthkey -X myprivkey localhost IP-MIB::ipAdEntBcastAddr."127.0.0.1" IP-MIB::ipAdEntBcastAddr.”127.0.0.1” = Integer32: 1

$ pysnmpset -v2c -c public localhost SNMPv2-MIB::sysDescr.0 = my-new-descr notWritable(17)

For more information, please, run any of these tools with –help option.
