-.UC 4
-.SH NAME
-snmpbulkget - communicates with a network entity using SNMP GETBULK Requests.
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B snmpbulkget
-[APPLICATION OPTIONS] [COMMON OPTIONS] OID [OID]...
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.B snmpbulkget
-is an SNMP application that uses the SNMP GETBULK request to query a
-network entity efficiently for information. One or more object
-identifiers (OIDs) may be given as arguments on the command line.
-Each variable name is given in the format specified in
-.IR variables(5) .
-.PP
-If the network entity has an error processing the request packet, an
-error packet will be returned and a message will be shown, helping to
-pinpoint why the request was malformed.
-.SH OPTIONS
-.TP 8
-.BI -Cn <NUM>
-Set the
-.I non-repeaters
-field in the GETBULK PDU. This specifies the number of supplied
-variables that should not be iterated over. The default is 0.
-.TP
-.BI -Cr <NUM>
-Set the
-.I max-repetitions
-field in the GETBULK PDU. This specifies the maximum number of
-iterations over the repeating variables. The default is 10.
-.PP
-In addition to these options,
-.B snmpbulkget
-takes the common options described in the
-.I snmpcmd(1)
-manual page.
-.SH EXAMPLE
-The command:
-.PP
-snmpbulkget -v2c -Cn1 -Cr5 -Os -c public zeus system ifTable
-.PP
-will retrieve the variable system.sysDescr.0 (which is the
-lexicographically next object to system) and the first 5 objects in
-the ifTable:
-.PP
-sysDescr.0 = STRING: "SunOS zeus.net.cmu.edu 4.1.3_U1 1 sun4m"
-.br
-ifIndex.1 = INTEGER: 1
-.br
-ifIndex.2 = INTEGER: 2
-.br
-ifDescr.1 = STRING: "lo0"
-.br
-et cetera.
-.SH NOTE
-As the name implies,
-.B snmpbulkget
-utilizes the SNMP GETBULK message, which is not available in SNMPv1.
