[manager] The configuration option inform_request_behaviour was not properly parsed, which caused the manager to revert to the default value, auto.

[compiler] The MIB-compiler did not recognize well-known-names as top parents. The names 'ccitt' (0) , 'iso' (1) and 'joint-iso-ccitt' (2) is now also recognized by the MIB compiler.

[compiler] The MIB-compiler did not support a name assignment which was sequence of numbers, only a parent object name followed by a sequence of numbers.

[agent] When sending a trap, the order of the variable bindings not provided by the trap-sender, could be mangled by the agent.

Corrected usage of function file:open/2 (the Modes argument is a list).

Own Id: OTP-7110

The SNMP application contains some (previously undocumented) simple utility functions for function tracing (using dbg), see enable_trace, disable_trace, set_trace/1, reset_trace and set_trace/2 for more info. These functions are intended to make it easy to enable tracing on individual functions. There where some minor errors, which has now been corrected.

Own Id: OTP-7109

There is a bug in snmp_pdus:enc_oct_str_tag/1. All the enc_* functions are supposed to return a flat list, but the second clause of this function does not. If it gets a binary it returns a deep list.

Martin Björklund

Own Id: OTP-7083

Added buffer sizes (both receive and send) of the udp socket(s) info when calling the agent info and manager info function(s).

Own Id: OTP-6945

[agent] Added the ability to change the request limit in run-time, see set_request_limit for more info.

Own Id: OTP-6898

Added the ability to change the audit trail log type in run-time (both agent and manager), see function(s) [manager] set_log_type and [agent] set_log_type for more info.

Own Id: OTP-6841

[agent] Added support for message filtering in the network interface module provided with the application. The component that actually make the filter decisions is the network interface filter module. This module must implement the network interface filter behaviour. See also the Configuring the application chapter of the User's Guide to see how to configure this feature.

Bad length check (i.e. none) when decoding AuthenticationParameters.

Own Id: OTP-6843

[agent] The order in which the processes in the snmp agent where terminated was incorrect. This could, in some case's, lead to incoming request(s) being processed during the application termination phase. This, in turn, could lead to various process crashes (when expected resources where no longer available).

The snmp documentation source has been converted from SGML to XML.

Own Id: OTP-6771

[agent] Unexpected worker process termination. When the agent is multi-threaded (multi_thread = true), sending a request to the agent with an invalid context could lead to an unexpected worker process termination. This is a non-fatal problem since the master-agent would simply create a new worker process.

Added documentation for snmp:passwd2localized_key/3.

Own Id: OTP-6540

The snmp:config/0 utility function assumes by default current working dir as the directory to write config files. This is a problem since there are two files that share the same name, usm.conf, one for the agent and the other for the manager. Some extra checks has been added to be able warn the user about this possible conflict.

Minor documentation improvement for module snmp_generic.

Miscellaneous minor corrections, such as removing "dead code". Detected by dialyzer.

Own Id: OTP-6137

Improve error handling of the log_to_txt function(s). [snmpm|snmpa]:log_to_txt on a non-existing log-file causes an obscure error reason.

[manager] Type guard error.

Kostis Sagonas.

Own Id: OTP-6074 (dialyzer)

Misc Dialyzer warnings.

Own Id: OTP-6068

[manager] Default value tags may conflict with actual host name. When storing default values for agents, the tag, default, was used for address (and port). This could conflict with an actual host name.

Own Id: OTP-6062

Misc doc corrections.

Own Id: OTP-6044

Misc compiler warning cleanup.

Own Id: OTP-6031

[manager] Improve handling of empty messages. Today when receiving an empty (size = 0) udp message, this will result in a decode failure (a catched function clause), which in turn will be passed on to the user, via a call to the handle_error callback function, in the Reason argument. This has now been changed so that instead, the Reason argument will get a empty message value.

See handle_error for more details.

Own Id: OTP-6024

[manager] Some error cases are reported to the 'user' with the ReqId and Reason swapped in the call to the handle_error callback function.

[manager] Introduced the inform request behaviour configuration option to allow the user to specify how/when the manager shall acknowledge inform-request's.

Own Id: OTP-5733

[manager] In order to improve application behaviour, all callback function (see the snmpm_user behaviour) calls are now done by spawned processes (and not as previously by the SNMP manager server process).

Own Id: OTP-5726

[manager] In order to present the various error reason's returned by the manager, a format_reason function has been added. The error reasons this function handles are those returned by the (sync and async) get, get-next, get-bulk and set-functions (see the snmpm module) as well as the Reason argument of the handle_error function of the user callback module.

[manager] The snmpm_network_interface behaviour has been updated (see inform_response and definition of the manager net if).

Own Id: OTP-5733

[manager] Add monitoring of the SNMP manager. The SNMP application consists of two different run-time parts, the agent and the manager. They are independent of each other. The agent is "permanent" and the manager "transient". In order to handle manager crashes a simple monitor (and demonitor) function has been added.

Own Id: OTP-5720

[manager] If sending a set-request containing an 'OCTET STRING' with an invalid integer (valid integer are 0-255), the encoding will fail and cause the net_if process to crash.

This argument is passed on to the net-if process. The net-if process included in this application makes no use of this info, but other implementations might.

Aux Id: Seq 9850

[manager] report message with incorrect security info (e.g. securtyModel and/or securityLevel) was ignored (dropped, except for incrementing the proper error counter) even if all other info was correct. This has been changed so that in this situation, the user will be informed, either via the return value from a synchronous call (see synchronous get (g), synchronous set (s) and synchronous get-next (gn)) or via a call to the handle_error callback function.

Own Id: OTP-5258

[manager] When the net_if process failed to send a message, for whatever reason, this is just dropped. And the user is "left hanging". Now, if the request is synchronous, it will return with a proper reason (snmpm:g, snmpm:gn and snmpm:s), and if the request was asynchronous, the new callback function, handle_error (see snmpm_user) is called.

New sys configuration format. Although the old configuration format still works (if only the agent is used), it is no longer documented and will eventually be eliminated. See application configuration or configuration params for more info.

Three new interface modules have been introduced. One for each of the individual parts of the application:

The primary interface module, snmp, still exist. It contains the application generic functions. The agent specific stuff still exist (for backward compatibility reasons), but has been deprecated and will eventually be removed.

Some previously already deprecated functions has been removed (since they in turn was dependent on deprecated functions, see calendar).

[agent] The agent network interface API has changed. See snmp agent net if,

[agent] The default agent audit trail log name has changed.

[compiler] Mib format has changed (see OTP-5053 above).
