Title: Replete with errors
Review: I am very sorry to see this book still in print and still on the virtual shelves. It is by far the worst book on SNMP I have ever read. The factual errors in this book are too numerous to detail...suffice it to say that where it deals with important aspects of SNMP and applications built on SNMP it is either wrong, misleading, or incomplete far more often than not. I posted a detailed analysis to one of the IETF SNMP lists (after trying unsuccessfully to communicate with the author) when I bought the book when it first came out. I honestly don't remember the specifics...but I am certain that this book would do more harm than good to anyone setting out to write his or her first SNMP application. Fortunately, intervening developments (such as SNMPv3, AgentX, WinSNMP, etc.) have made this book all but totally irrelevant anyway.
