Snmpget is an SNMP application that uses the GET NEXT Request to query for
information on a network entity. One or more object
identifiers may be given as arguments on the command line.
Each variable name is given in the format specified in
variables (5).
For each one, the variable that is lexicographicly "next" in the remote entity's
MIB will be returned.
For example
snmpgetnext zeus public interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifType.1
will retrieve the variable interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifType.2:
interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifType.2 = softwareLoopback(24)
If the network entity has an error processing the request packet, an error
message will be shown, helping to pinpoint in what way the request was malformed.
