SNMPBULKWALK(1)SNMPBULKWALK(1)NAMEsnmpbulkwalk - communicates with a network entity using
SNMP BULK Requests.
SYNOPSISsnmpbulkwalk [common arguments] [objectID]
DESCRIPTION
Snmpbulkwalk is an SNMP application that uses BULK
Requests to query for a tree of information about a net
work entity.
A variable may also be given on the command line. This
variable specifies which portion of the object identifier
space will be searched using BULK Requests. All variables
in the subtree below the given variable are queried as a
single request and their values presented to the user.
Each variable name is given in the format specified in
variables(5).
If the "objectID" argument is not present, snmpbulkwalk
will search MIB-2.
For example
snmpbulkwalk-v 2c zeus public system
will retrieve all of the variables under system:
system.sysDescr.0 = "SunOS zeus.net.cmu.edu 4.1.3_U1 1
sun4m"
system.sysObjectID.0 = OID: enterprises.hp.nm.hpsys
tem.10.1.1
system.sysUpTime.0 = Timeticks: (155274552) 17 days,
23:19:05
system.sysContact.0 = ""
system.sysName.0 = "zeus.net.cmu.edu"
system.sysLocation.0 = ""
system.sysServices.0 = 72
If the network entity has an error processing the request
packet, an error packet will be returned and a message
will be shown, helping to pinpoint why the request was
malformed.
If the tree search causes attempts to search beyond the
end of the MIB, a message will be displayed:
End of MIB.
NOTE
As the name implies, snmpbulkwalk utilizes the SNMP GET
BULK message, which is not available in SNMP v1.
