Bug #28114 for Net-SNMP-Interfaces: No 64-bit counters

Wed Jul 11 18:01:59 2007 Bruce.Tanner [...] Cerritos.edu - Ticket created

Subject:	No 64-bit counters
Date:	Wed, 11 Jul 2007 15:01:33 -0700
To:	"bug-Net-SNMP-Interfaces [...] rt.cpan.org" <bug-Net-SNMP-Interfaces [...] rt.cpan.org>
From:	"Tanner, Bruce" <Bruce.Tanner [...] Cerritos.edu>

Problem: The ifHC* methods return null. Diagnosis: Net::SNMP::Interfaces creates a Net::SNMP session with the default version (snmpv1), which does not support 64-bit counters. Solution: Add a Version argument to Net::SNMP::Interfaces->new to pass to Net::SNMP->session. ... $self->{_hostname} = $args{Hostname} || 'localhost'; $self->{_community} = $args{Community} || 'public'; $self->{_port} = $args{Port} || 161; $self->{_version} = $args{Version} || 2; $self->{_raise} = $args{RaiseError} || 0; my ($session, $error) = Net::SNMP->session( -hostname => $self->{_hostname}, -community => $self->{_community}, -port => $self->{_port}, -version => $self->{_version} ); ... -Bruce -- Bruce Tanner (562) 860-2451 x 2164 Bruce.Tanner@Cerritos.edu Cerritos College Norwalk, CA

Thanks for this, having had a quick look at the code this should be trivial to implement (I originally thought that I would have to regenerate the OID to method mapping and appear to have lost the program I used to do that originally.) I've just got to restore my SVN repository as the machine it was on broke recently and should get round to making a fixed released in the next short while if work doesn't get in the way :-) Thanks again. /J\

I have added support for setting the version, but defaulted to v1 as I am not sure of what work should be done for v2 (or v3) support at this time. https://github.com/jonathanstowe/Net-SNMP-Interfaces/commit/624f6ef0406efa232d3d526a1b08f33ba3c0b63d
