Hi all, I recently talked to a customer of ours (Hartmann & Braun AG, Frankfurt/Germany) that tries to manage Cisco routers with DECmcc, too. Of course, we ran into the same problem as described in 4060.* and 4068.*. Scanning through the MSL files produced by the MIB compiler and the MIBs them- selves, I discovered that write-only MIB variables were described as DISPLAY = TRUE MODIFYABLE = TRUE (or something like that). Is this correct behaviour? In my humble opinion, it should maybe read DISPLAY = FALSE MODIFYABLE = TRUE. Am I correct or is it bull I'm talking? Kind Regards Josch

You're right. The msl should read DISPLAY=FALSE for write-only objects. But this should not create any problems, since the output for a SHOW operation should display it as Attribute-Not-Gettable. Your real problem is a limitation in the SNMP AM which has been fixed in the T1.3.1 kit. With this kit you should be able to get all your readable attributes back correctly, while the write-only attributes should show up as attribute-not-gettable. Rahul. | |||||
