Configuring SNMP

Value Field Set

GetNextRequest

The only values that can be returned in as the second element in the variable-

bindings field to a GetNextRequest when an error-status code occurs are

unSpecified or endOfMibView.

GetBulkRequest

The GetBulkRequest minimizes the number of protocol exchanges by letting

an SNMPv2 manager request that the response be as large as possible given

the constraints on the message size.

The GetBulkRequest PDU has two fields that do not appear in the other

PDUs: non-repeaters and max-repetitions. The non-repeaters field specifies

the number of variables in the variable-bindings list for which a single-

lexicographic successor is to be returned. The max-repetitions field specifies

the number of lexicographic successors to be returned for the remaining

variables in the variable-bindings list.

If at any point in the process, a lexicographic successor does not exist, the

endofMibView value is returned with the name of the last lexicographic

If the processing of a variable fails for any other

reason, the responding entity returns genErr

and a value in the error-index field that is the

index of the problem object in the variable-

bindings field.

If the size of the message that encapsulates

the generated response PDU exceeds a local

limitation or the maximum message size of the

request's source party, then the response PDU

is discarded and a new response PDU is

constructed. The new response PDU has an

error-status of tooBig, an error-index of zero,

and an empty variable-bindings field.
