snmpbulkget(1M)		System Administration Commands	       snmpbulkget(1M)

NAME
       snmpbulkget  -  communicate  with  a  network entity using SNMP GETBULK
       requests

SYNOPSIS
       snmpbulkget [application options] [common options] oid [oid...]

DESCRIPTION
       The snmpbulkget utility is an SNMP application that uses the SNMP  GET‐
       BULK  operation to send information to a network manager. You can spec‐
       ify one or more object identifiers (OIDs) on  the  command  line.  Each
       variable	 name  must  be	 entered in the format specified in snmp_vari‐
       ables(4).

       If the network entity has an error processing the  request  packet,  an
       error packet is returned and a message displayed, indicating the way in
       which the request was malformed.

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported:

       -Cnnum

	   Set the non-repeaters field in the GETBULK PDU. This specifies  the
	   number  of supplied variables that should not be iterated over. The
	   default is 0.

       -Crnum

	   Set the max-repetitions field in the GETBULK	 PDU.  This  specifies
	   the	maximum number of iterations over the repeating variables. The
	   default is 10.

       In addition to  this  option,  snmpbulkget  takes  the  common  options
       described in the snmpcmd(1M) manual page.

EXAMPLES
       Example 1: Retrieving Multiple Objects

       The  following snmpbulkget command retrieves the variable system.sysDe‐
       scr.0 (which is the lexicographically next object to  system)  and  the
       first five objects in the ifTable:

       # snmpbulkget -v2c -Cn1 -Cr5 -Os -c public zeus system ifTable

       This command produces output such as the following:

       sysDescr.0 = STRING: "SunOS zeus.net.cmu.edu 4.1.3_U1 1 sun4m"
       ifIndex.1 = INTEGER: 1
       ifIndex.2 = INTEGER: 2
       ifDescr.1 = STRING: "lo0"
       [...]
