  Module snmpa_mpd   Module Summary Message Processing and Dispatch module for the SNMP agent   Description
The module snmpa_mpd implements the version independent Message Processing and Dispatch functionality in SNMP for the agent. It is supposed to be used from a Network Interface process (Definition of Agent Net if).    Data types See the  data types in snmpa_conf.  Exports   init(Vsns) -> mpd_state()    Types
This function can be called from the net_if chris52@example.org. The options list defines which versions to use.  It also initializes some SNMP counters.    process_packet(Packet, From, State, NoteStore, Log) -> {ok, Vsn, Pdu, PduMS, ACMData} | {discarded, Reason} | {discovery, DiscoPacket} OTP 17.3   process_packet(Packet, From, LocalEngineID, State, NoteStore, Log) -> {ok, Vsn, Pdu, PduMS, ACMData} | {discarded, Reason} | {discovery, DiscoPacket} OTP R14B   Types
Processes an incoming packet. Performs authentication and decryption as necessary. The return values should be passed to the agent.  Note 
Note that the use of the LocalEngineID argument is only intended for special cases, if the agent is to "emulate" multiple EngineIDs! By default, the agent uses the value of SnmpEngineID (see SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB).      generate_response_msg(Vsn, RePdu, Type, ACMData, Log) -> {ok, Packet} | {discarded, Reason} OTP R14B   generate_response_msg(Vsn, RePdu, Type, ACMData, LocalEngineID, Log) -> {ok, Packet} | {discarded, Reason} OTP R14B   Types
Generates a possibly encrypted response packet to be sent to the network. Type is the #pdu.type of the original request.  Note 
Note that the use of the LocalEngineID argument is only intended for special cases, if the agent is to "emulate" multiple EngineIDs! By default, the agent uses the value of SnmpEngineID (see SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB).      generate_msg(Vsn, NoteStore, Pdu, MsgData, To) -> {ok, PacketsAndAddresses} | {discarded, Reason} OTP R14B   generate_msg(Vsn, NoteStore, Pdu, MsgData, LocalEngineID, To) -> {ok, PacketsAndAddresses} | {discarded, Reason} OTP R14B   Types
Generates a possibly encrypted request packet to be sent to the network.  MsgData is the message specific data used in the SNMP message. This value is received in a send_pdu or  send_pdu_req message from the agent. In SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c, this message data is the community string. In SNMPv3, it is the context information.  To is a list of destination addresses and their corresponding security parameters. This value is received in the same message from the agent and then transformed trough process_taddrs before passed to this function.  Note 
Note that the use of the LocalEngineID argument is only intended for special cases, if the agent is to "emulate" multiple EngineIDs! By default, the agent uses the value of SnmpEngineID (see SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB).      process_taddrs(TDests) -> Dests OTP 17.3   Types
Transforms addresses from internal MIB format to one more useful to Agent Net if.  See also generate_msg.    discarded_pdu(Variable) -> void()    Types
Increments the variable associated with a discarded pdu. This function can be used when the net_if process receives a discarded_pdu message from the agent.      Copyright © 1997-2020 Ericsson AB. All Rights Reserved.
