Hi, Newer versions of Net-SNMP support reporting 64bit counters via the pass/pass_persist mechanism. As of 0.06 this isn't a supported type. Supporting said counters should be as easy as --- PassPersist.pm 2013-01-02 10:55:04.249101714 +0000 +++ PassPersist.pm.new 2013-01-02 10:54:54.633190278 +0000 @@ -60,6 +60,7 @@ # global variables ------------------------------------------------------------- my %snmp_ext_type = ( counter => "counter", + counter64 => "counter64", gauge => "gauge", integer => "integer", ipaddr => "ipaddress", Pete

Are you sure about this? I see no such mention in either the documentation or the changelog. -- Sébastien Aperghis-Tramoni Close the world, txEn eht nepO.

Hi, Yes I'm pretty sure support is there. netsnmp_internal_pass_parse(char * buf, char * buf2, size_t * var_len, struct variable *vp) in agent/mibgroup/ucd-snmp/pass_common.c of net-snmp 5.7.2 else if (!strncasecmp(buf, "counter64", 9)) { static struct counter64 c64; uint64_t v64 = strtoull(buf2, NULL, 10); c64.high = (unsigned long)(v64 >> 32); c64.low = (unsigned long)(v64 & 0xffffffff); *var_len = sizeof(c64); vp->type = ASN_COUNTER64; return ((unsigned char *) &c64); } Looks like support, and it certainly seems to work.
