It would be nice to change the configuration options for ucd-snmp to include at least the SMUX interface for extending the agent in run-time. This feature is e.g. needed by both an SNMP-enabled gated and an SNMP-enabled zebra. Future versions of zebra might eventually support AgentX (and this is the recommended interface for new agent extensions), so it would be nice to include this one, as well, but unfortunately, i don't know how stable that one is. The SMUX interface seems to work just fine for me. -- Jochen
Probably a good idea. FWIW, I tried to do this several releases ago, but the support in ucd-snmp was lacking (read: buggy). Deferred for future consideration after Red Hat 7.0.
AFAIK, ucd-snmp-4.2-3 has SMUX enabled.
