Hi!
I just imported snmpd(8) and snmpctl(8), an initial attempt to
implement a new SNMP daemon for OpenBSD. SNMP is the "Simple Network
Management Protocol" and it is still very commonly used in corporate
networks, by network vendors, and in network management systems (NMS).
SNMP is very essential for me since I'm using it at work; our security
appliances based on OpenBSD need to integrate into various SNMP
scenarios. We had to use net-snmp for this; the BSD license is good
but the code is very bad and full of ancient cruft and portability
glue. Then there were many problems with the net-snmp port in
OpenBSD, people reported 90% CPU usage on -misc, crashes, bugs, ...it
was just a pain.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Well, finally.. my net-snmp 5.4p1 on 4.2 box keeps dying.. 5.4.1 eating my
cpus.. how can we test it?
