snmp multi threaded = bool() <optional> If true, the agent is multi-threaded, with one thread
for each get request. Default is false.
snmp req limit = integer() | infinity <optional> The number of simultaneous requests (get,
get-next and get-bulk) the agent will allow. Default is infinity.
snmp priority = atom()
normal.
<optional> Defines the Erlang priority for all SNMP processes. Default is
<optional> Defines if the agent shall speak SNMPv1. Default is true.
v2 = bool() <optional> Defines if the agent shall speak SNMPv2c. Default is true.
v3 = bool() <optional> Defines if the agent shall speak SNMPv3. Default is true.
snmp local db auto repair = false | true | true verbose <optional> When starting
v1 = bool()
snmp local db it always tries to open an existing database. If false, and some errors occur, a new
datebase is created instead. If true, erroneous transactions (in the logfile) are ignored. If
true verbose, erroneous transactions (in the logfile) are igored and an error message is written.
Default is true.
snmp mibentry override = bool() <optional> If this value is false, then when loading a mib each
mib- entry is checked prior to installation of the mib. The perpose of the check is to prevent that
the same symbolic mibentry name is used for in different oid's. Default is false.
snmp trapentry override = bool() <optional> If this value is false, then when loading a mib each
trap is checked prior to installation of the mib. The perpose of the check is to prevent that the
same symbolic trap name is used for in different trap's. Default is false.
snmp error report mod = atom() <optional> Defines an error report module, other then the
default. Two modules are provided with the toolkit: snmp error and snmp error io. Default is
snmp error.
snmp master agent verbosity = silence | info | log | debug | trace
the startup verbosity for the SNMP master agent. Default is silence.
<optional> Specifies
snmp symbolic store verbosity = silence | info | log | debug | trace <optional>
Specifies the startup verbosity for the SNMP symbolic store. Default is silence.
snmp note store verbosity = silence | info | log | debug | trace
the startup verbosity for the SNMP note store. Default is silence.
snmp net if verbosity = silence | info | log | debug | trace
startup verbosity for the SNMP net if. Default is silence.
<optional> Specifies
<optional> Specifies the
snmp mibserver verbosity = silence | info | log | debug | trace
the startup verbosity for the SNMP mib server. Default is silence.
<optional> Specifies
snmp mib storage = ets | fdets,Dirg | fdets,Dir,Actiong | fmnesia,Nodesg | fmnesia,Nodes,Actiong
Specifies how info retrieved from the mibs will be stored. Default is ets.
Dir = string(). Dir is the directory where the (dets) files will be created.
Nodes = [node()]. If Nodes = [] then the own node is assumed.
Action = clear | keep. Default is keep. Action is used to specify what shall be done if the
mnesia table already exist.
1.5.2 Modifying the Configuration Files
To to start the agent, the agent configuration files must be modified and there are two ways of doing
this. Either edit the files manually, or run the configuration tool as follows.
If authentication or encryption is used (SNMPv3 only), start the crypto application.
1> application:start(crypto).
