Re[4]: How to get IP of received get request

[Igor Sobinov]

Hello Fulko,

Thanks a lot for your responce. If sender's IP address of NMS is not provided via  Agent X, is the only way to get it is to create my module as shared object loaded by snmpd?

Hello,
I created my subagent, based on Agent X protocol. So, in my subagent I need
to know the IP of recipient

Sorry, the IP address of the controlling NMS is not communicated via
AgentX to subagents.
Trap targets are configured into Net-SNMP so when you use the
NOTIFY-PDU, the appropriate
trap/notifications are sent correctly to the pre-configured
trapsink/trap2sink/informsink/trapsess
addresses. (man snmpd.conf)

You can read it from the log file of snmptrapd, if you want to implement it
as a script perhaps? Or you are looking for the API?

Technically speaking, a sub-agent does not need to know
the sender's IP address. Why do you think you need it?
Perhaps you want to do something philosophically wrong.

I can't speak for that technique, I have never used it.
