Regarding Unsigned64 interpretation by SMILINT

Hi LIBSMI Folks , When a MIB containing Unsigned64 object is compiled using SMILINT . it gives the below error : xxxx.my:22: [0] {keyword-illegal-in-mib} the SPPI construct/keyword `Unsigned64' may not be used in a MIB Although the Unsigned64 Object is defined in the MIB . Thanks Rohit

HI, Is there a separate MIB module repository. The downloads section has the MIB modules bundled and not separate. Regards, /david t. perkins

Hi Juergen, Thanks for the quick response . I downloaded the windows binary , but the binary did not contain the smistrip.exe . How can I get the smistrip for windows .

Running smistrip on Windows thus assumes a cygwin environment or something similar. Note that while I did compile the Win32 binaries, I am not using them on Win32 - in fact, the binaries are simply cross-compiled and put on the FTP server. But some people seem to use them - so they seem to work. /js -- Juergen Schoenwaelder International University Bremen <http://www.eecs.iu-bremen.de/> P.O. Box 750 561, 28725 Bremen, Germany

minor memory leak
by Juergen Schoenwaelder 23 Mar '06

23 Mar '06

Hi, below is a very simple program which simply initializes libsmi and afterwards cleans up again. #include <smi.h> int main(int argc, char **argv) { smiInit(NULL); smiExit(); return 0; } Running this program with valgrind on an Intel Linux box reveals that this program leaks some memory. It seems that smiExit() does not cleanup all memory that got allocated. 44 bytes in 1 blocks are definitely lost in loss record 1 of 1 at 0x401E88E: calloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:279) by 0x402D949: smiMalloc (util.c:88) by 0x4028026: addNode (data.c:1029) by 0x402973A: smiInitData (data.c:3363) by 0x402EB5D: smiInit (smi.c:208) by 0x804847B: main (in /tmp/aa) It is not a big deal, still I thought I at least document the issue on this mailing list. ;-) /js -- Juergen Schoenwaelder International University Bremen <http://www.eecs.iu-bremen.de/> P.O.

Thanks, that clears it up. I can use the Entry node to verify the read-create access. -----Original Message----- From: Juergen Schoenwaelder [mailto:j.schoenwaelder@iu-bremen.de] Sent: Monday, March 06, 2006 2:14 PM To: John Wiebe Cc: libsmi(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de Subject: Re: [libsmi] smiquery not showing correct MAX-ACCESS.

Libsmi has internally a different understanding of access levels than the SMIv2. If you have an SMIv2 table which supports row creation, you have to mark all writable columns read-create. Libsmi instead marks them as read-write and sets a creatable flag on the table's entry node. See for example smiquery node SNMP-VIEW-BASED-ACM-MIB::vacmAccessEntry and check the "Creatable:" line. Since smiquery reports the internal representation (very useful for debugging), this is just consistent. /js -- Juergen Schoenwaelder International University Bremen <http://www.eecs.iu-bremen.de/> P.O.

smiquery not showing correct MAX-ACCESS.
by John Wiebe 06 Mar '06

06 Mar '06

I've been using smiquery to get various information from MIB's. However, I've found that it isn't reporting the correct MAX-ACCESS if the MAX-ACCESS is read-create, it always returns read-write. I noticed in the changelog that this was fixed once before and I'm courious if I am missing something obvious when I try to get this value. In the example below, I am using the default mibs shipped with libsmi. I am using libsmi-0.4.3 on a linux machine. Any help or work around would be appreciated. Thanks, libsmi-0.4.3 ChangLog: 2000-02-07 Frank Strauss <strauss(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de> * tools/dump-mosy.c: fixed determination of types of %tc's and objects; added special type `ObjectID'. Added distinction of read-write/read-create.

Changing the value of this object from 'active' to 'notInService' or 'destroy' will likely have consequences up and down the interface stack. Thus, write access to this object is likely to be inappropriate for some types of interfaces, and many implementations will choose not to support write-access for any type of interface.

Does smidump support 64 bit addressing.?

Hi All, Can smidump be used on 64 bit platforms..? Do we need to specify any option at the time of configuration for this. Please clarify this. Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Suresh.

It compiles and runs on Linux x86_64 without any special intervention and the test suite succeeds (except for currently outdated test cases). However, I don't regularly use it on any 64bit system.
