<description>
<p>RFC1157, RFC1905 and/or RFC2272 should be studied carefully
before using this module, <c>snmp_pdus</c>.
</p>
<p>The module <c>snmp_pdus</c> contains functions for encoding
and decoding of
SNMP protocol data units (PDUs). In short, this module converts a
list of bytes to Erlang record representations and vice versa.
The record definitions can be found in the file
<c>snmp/include/snmp_types.hrl</c>. If snmpv3 is used, the module
that includes <c>snmp_types.hrl</c> must define the constant
<c>SNMP_USE_V3</c> before the header file is included. Example:</p>
<pre>
-define(SNMP_USE_V3, true).
-include_lib("snmp/include/snmp_types.hrl"). </pre>
<p>Encoding and decoding must be done explicitly when writing your
own Net if process.
</p>

<v>Message = #message</v>
</type>
<desc>
<p>Decodes a list of bytes into an SNMP Message. Note, if there
is a v3 message, the <c>msgSecurityParameters</c> are not
decoded. They must be explicitly decoded by a call to a
security model specific decoding function,
e.g. <c>dec_usm_security_parameters/1</c>. Also note, if
the <c>scopedPDU</c> is encrypted, the OCTET STRING encoded
<c>encryptedPDU</c> will be present in the <c>data</c> field.</p>

<p>Decodes a list of bytes into an SNMP Message, but does not
decode the data part of the Message. That means, data is still
a list of bytes, normally an encoded <c>PDU</c> (v1 and V2) or an
