85 was delayed and further changes and fixes were made. However, the
86 release candidate files still appeared on the public FTP server and our
87 mirrors. To avoid the confusion that could occur to users who may have
88 downloaded this release candidate, we are bumping the revision number
89 to 5.0.5. If you downloaded net-snmp-5.0.4.tar.gz, please upgrade

166 - Much of the agent internals were completely rewritten and sports
167 a new module API to make your life easier. See the
168 agent/mibgroup/examples directory for example code that makes
169 use of some of the new functionality.
170 (Also see http://www.net-snmp.org/tutorial-5/agent/ which has
171 some incomplete documentation)
172 - The agent sports embedded perl, see the perl details further below.
173 - The agent supports multiple SNMPv3 contexts and mib modules can
174 now register themselves under different contexts. (see the -n

188 - snmptrapd now acts as an agentx subagent and implements portions
189 of the NOTIFICATION-LOG-MIB to allow captured traps and informs
191 - A "net-snmp-config" script will get installed which can report
192 how the various tools were built (which libraries they were
193 linked against, etc). It will also help you do other things as
194 well, like setting up snmpv3. Run net-snmp-config --help for details.

196 See ./configure --help for details on enabling the ksm security module.
197 - The AgentX subagent protocol implementation has many new
199 - mib2c was completely rewritten and has a much improved
200 configuration file specification.

207 the includes easily without having to run "make install" first.
208 - the agent now requires a configuration file to access any information.
209 - The entire code base has had indent run on it to effect a
210 consistent coding style. See the CodingStyle file for details.

215 applications, which means it will read snmp.conf configuration
217 - new perl specific configure options --with-perl-modules &
218 --enable-embedded-perl. See ./configure --help for details.
219 - The beginnings of some new Perl modules (alpha level quality)
220 are in the perl directory, including:
221 - NetSNMP::agent which allows perl scripts to become net-snmp
223 - AnyData::SNMP is available that implements a perl DBI
224 interface to map SQL commands to SNMP. Included is a "netsh"
225 shell where SQL commands can be typed, aliases created, etc.

657 - no longer reads everything (MIBS/MIBDIRS)
658 - reads import clauses to load other required modules
659 - new man page: mib_api.3
660 - The agent has been completely restructured (modularized) to
661 allow for easier extension via C code and requires no
662 modification of the ucd-snmp distributed source code to add in
