RE: Netview PDU Packing Question

FWIW, my response is from an application program perspective.
How are you looking to perform this request? With respect to the PDU as
declred in OVsnmpApi.h:
#define PDU_SIZE (sizeof (OVsnmpPdu))
The PDU structure is only bounded by your memory contraints. You could
declare a PDU with as many oids as you desire using 'OVsnmpVarBind
*variables'.
When you talk about 1500 bytes are you referring to ethernet packet size?
At the application layer multiple packets should have been re-assembled to
give you your entire request.
Hope this helps,

Subject: [NV-L] Netview PDU Packing Question
My question relates to the efficiency of how Netview performs SNMP
GetRequests during collection. I am aware that most SNMP agents today
support a maximum Protocol Data Unit (PDU) of 1500 bytes. Does Netview
support a PDU size of 1500 bytes?
If I enable Netview to collect 10 different MIB objects, will the SNMP
GetRequest include all 10 of the MIB objects in a single PDU or will Netview
use 10 separate requests to obtain the information?
Thank You
Paul
