[Xorp-hackers] Does anybody have some suggesstion about SNMP?

[wancheng82]

Our team is developing one Layer2 switch stack based on xorp.
We want to support SNMP.
But it seems not easy to do these:
1)If we add SNMP SET，how to make sure CLI and SNMP configuration consistent
2)How to make the development easizer?
   I saw the implementation of  BGP-MIB, and it is not easy to understand(May be I need to learn more about NET-SNMP api).
3)How to make the efficency better?
   Also the efficiency is not good, because BGP-MIB module maintains a timer to get info from BGP target.
   
My idea is to integrated agent++ as one module, but I have not begin to think about it.

Thank you.

Robin.

Out of curiosity, what do you need from Xorp that isn't supported by the OS
already?
Thanks,
