libsmi(3) SMI Management Information Library libsmi(3)
NAME
libsmi - library to access SMI management information
DESCRIPTION
This library contains functions that allow access to SMI management
information stored in repositories that are managed by libsmi, cur-
rently directories containing SMIv1/v2 and SMIng MIB module files.
The libsmi API is defined in smi.h. Functions are documented in
smi_config(3), smi_module(3), smi_node(3), smi_type(3), and
smi_macro(3).
The purpose of libsmi is to separate the weird parsing and handling of
MIB modules from management applications. MIB modules conforming to
SMIv1, SMIv2 and SMIng - a new language for management information,
developed originally at the Technical University of Braunschweig, Ger-
many - can be handled by libsmi.
EXAMPLE
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <smi.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
SmiNode *smiNode;
SmiModule *smiModule;
int i, oidlen, first = 1;
const char *modules[] = {
"SNMPv2-SMI", "SNMPv2-TC", "SNMPv2-CONF",
"SNMPv2-MIB", "IF-MIB", NULL
};
if (argc != 2) {
fprintf(stderr, "Usage: smisubtree oid0);
exit(1);
}
smiInit(NULL);
for (i = 0; modules[i]; i++) {
fprintf(stderr, "loading MIB module '%s'0, modules[i]);
(void) smiLoadModule(modules[i]);
}
for((smiNode = smiGetNode(NULL, argv[1])) &&
(oidlen = smiNode->oidlen);
smiNode && (first || smiNode->oidlen > oidlen);
smiNode = smiGetNextNode(smiNode, SMI_NODEKIND_ANY),
first = 0) {
printf("%*s%-32s0,
(smiNode->oidlen - oidlen + 1) * 2, " ",
smiNode->name ? smiNode->name : "<?>");
};
exit(0);
}
