What version? (Score:1)

by Mr. Muskrat (4572)

I too am trying to wrap my head around SNMP. What version are you using: 1, 2, 3? It sounds quite a bit like you are SNMPv2 when using snmpwalk but SNMPv1 when using Perl. Version 1 doesn't know about Counter64's and it does in fact return noSuchName when it is asked for one. See RFC2089, Mapping SNMPv2 onto SNMPv1 within a bi-lingual SNMP agent. Specifically bullet point 2 under both Section 3.1 Processing an SNMPv1 GET request [rfc.net] and Section 3.2 Processing an SNMPv1 GETNEXT request [rfc.net].

  Hmmm, I was pretty sure it was version 2 (or version 2c???) for both, but you raise a good point that I should check that. Thank you.
