Examples of com.sun.jmx.snmp.SnmpPeer

• com.sun.jmx.snmp.SnmpPeer
  Holds information about an SNMP agent. This information is used to communicate with the agent. These are the IP address, port number, SNMP parameters, and peer channel parameters (such as the maximum request packet size, maximum number of variable bindings in a packet, retries, and timeouts). Changing these would affect all active requests.

  The class contains the following properties:

  • destPort: port number of the destination host.
    The default port is 161.
  • maxVarBindLimit: maximum number of OIDs which can be encoded in a single request packet. This is set by the user.
    A request which contains more than this limit will be automatically split into multiple requests. Typically used when multiplexing requests.
    The default value is 25.
  • maxSnmpPacketSize: maximum packet size of the request PDU. This can be set by the user.
    If the request crosses this limit while encoding, the request is automatically split into multiple small requests. Each of these requests will again be within this limit.
    The default value is (2 * 1024).
  • maxTries: number of times to try before giving up.
    The default number is 3.
  • timeout: amount of time to wait for a response from the peer. If this amount of time passes without a response, and if the maxTries value has not been exceeded, the request will be resent.
    The default amount of time is 3000 milliseconds.
  • snmpParameters: SNMP parameters to be used when communicating with the agent. The parameters contain the protocol version and security information (the parameters can be shared amongst several peers).

  JavaBean compliant getters and setters allow the properties listed above to be modified.
