SNMP

[ZacBowling]

Does anyone have an idea of how to access the SNMP API or
WMI SNMP provider in C#/.NET? I need to query a Ascend
MAX's SNMP service with a custom MIB in .NET. I won't be
modify anything on the MAX (even though a SET isn't
anymore difficult then a GET or a WALK I don't think).

It's not too difficult to write your own SNMP API. I show a simple
example of doing this in Chapter 12 of my "C# Network Programming"
book. You can freely download the example code from the Sybex web
site. The SNMP.cs class contains the methods to do a simple Get or
GetNext SNMP function. There are a couple of sample applications that
demonstrate how to use the class to query SNMP devices. Hope that
helps out some. Good luck.
