"I use IP*Works!. My experience with them is pretty much limited to the FTP, SMTP and UDP controls, all of which work really well and are very easy to use."

SNMPMgr Component [IP*Works! S/SNMP V6]

Properties Methods Events Configuration Settings

The SNMPMgr component is used to implement SNMP Management Applications.

NOTE: What follows is a very short description of the component interfaces. For more information, please consult the help files that come with the respective package.

Remarks

The SNMPMgr component implements a standard SNMP Manager as specified in the SNMP RFCs. The component supports SNMP v1, v2c, and v3.

The component provides both encoding/decoding and transport capabilities, making the task of developing a custom SNMP manager as simple as setting a few key properties and handling a few events. SNMP data, such as for instance SNMP object id-s (OID-s) are exchanged as text strings, thus further simplifying the task of handling them.

The component is activated/deactivated by setting the Active property. This property enables or disables sending and receiving.

Messages are received through events such as Response, Trap, or InformRequest. SNMP Traps are received through the Trap event.

Messages are sent to other agents or managers by using component's methods such as SendGetRequest, SendGetNextRequest, SendGetBulkRequest, SendSetRequest, and SendInformRequest.

SNMP OIDs, types, and values are provided in arrays such as ObjId, ObjType, and ObjValue, for both sent and received packets. ObjCount provides the number of elements in each of the arrays.

SNMPv3 USM security is enabled by setting properties such as User and Password and calling the Discover method to bind to a particular agent (RemoteEngineId). Upon successful discovery, received packets are checked for integrity (authentication) and timeliness. Note that the discovery step is optional, and may be avoided if the values for RemoteEngineId, RemoteEngineBoots, and RemoteEngineTime are known in advance and provided to the component through the respective properties.

By default, the component operates synchronously (except for the Discover method), sending a request and waiting until the corresponding response has been received. This behavior may be overridden by setting Timeout to 0, in which case the component returns control immediately after a send, and responses are received exclusively through the Response event.

Property List

AuthenticationProtocol	The authentication protocol used for SNMPv3 packets.
Community	The community string used to authenticate SNMP packets.
EncryptionPassword	The password used for SNMPv3 privacy.
ErrorDescription	Description of the status code for the last SNMP packet received by the component.
ErrorIndex	Index of the first variable (object) that caused an error from the last SNMP response.
