Asynchronous get-request.
The reply, if it arrives, will be delivered to the user through a call to the
snmpm_user callback function handle_pdu.
The send option timeout specifies for how long the request is valid (after
which the manager is free to delete it).
The send option extra specifies an opaque data structure passed on to the
net-if process. The net-if process included in this application makes, with one
exception, no use of this info, so the only use for it (when using the built in
net-if) would be tracing. The one usage exception is: Any tuple with
snmpm_extra_info_tag as its first element is reserved for internal use.
Some of the send options (community, sec_model, sec_name, sec_level and
max_message_size) are override options. That is, for this request, they
override any configuration done when the agent was registered.

Changes the log size of the Audit Trail Log. The application must be configured to use the audit trail log function. Please refer to disk_log(3) in Kernel Reference Manual for a description of how to change the log size.
The change is permanent, as long as the log is not deleted. That means, the log size is remembered across reboots.
-spec demonitor(Ref) -> true when Ref :: reference().
Turn off monitoring of the SNMP manager.
Equivalent to format_reason/2
-spec format_reason(Prefix, Reason) -> FReason when Prefix :: non_neg_integer() | string(), Reason :: term(), FReason :: string().
This utility function is used to create a formatted (pretty printable) string of the error reason received from either:
- The
Reasonreturned value if any of the sync/async get/get-next/set/get-bulk functions returns{error, Reason} - The
Reasonparameter in the handle_error user callback function.
Prefix should either be an indentation string (e.g. a list of spaces) or a
positive integer (which will be used to create the indentation string of that
length).
Returns a list (a dictionary) containing information about the manager. Information includes statistics counters, miscellaneous info about each process (e.g. memory allocation), and so on.
-spec load_mib(MibName) -> ok | {error, Reason} when MibName :: snmp:mib_name(), Reason :: term().
Load a Mib into the manager. The MibName is the name of the Mib, including

See snmp:log_to_txt for more info.
-spec monitor() -> MRef when MRef :: reference().
Monitor the SNMP manager. In case of a crash, the calling (monitoring) process will get a 'DOWN' message (see the erlang module for more info).
-spec name_to_oid(AliasName) -> {ok, OIDs} | {error, Reason} when AliasName :: atom(), OIDs :: [snmp:oid()], Reason :: term().
Transform a alias-name to its oid.
Note that an alias-name is only unique within the mib, so when loading several mib's into a manager, there might be several instances of the same aliasname.
-spec notify_started(Timeout) -> Pid when Timeout :: pos_integer(), Pid :: pid().
Request a notification (message) when the SNMP manager has started.
The Timeout is the time the request is valid. The value has to be greater then
zero.
The Pid is the process handling the supervision of the SNMP manager start.
When the manager has started a completion message will be sent to the client
from this process: {snmpm_started, Pid}. If the SNMP manager was not started
in time, a timeout message will be sent to the client:
{snmpm_start_timeout, Pid}.
A client application that is dependent on the SNMP manager will use this function in order to be notified of when the manager has started. There are two situations when this is useful:
- During the start of a system, when a client application could start prior to the SNMP manager but is dependent upon it, and therefore has to wait for it to start.
- When the SNMP manager has crashed, the dependent client application has to wait for the SNMP manager to be restarted before it can reconnect.
The function returns the pid() of a handler process, that does the supervision on behalf of the client application. Note that the client application is linked to this handler.
This function is used in conjunction with the monitor function.
-spec oid_to_name(OID) -> {ok, AliasName} | {error, Reason} when OID :: snmp:oid(), AliasName :: atom(), Reason :: term().
Transform a oid to its aliasname.
-spec oid_to_type(OID) -> {ok, Type} | {error, Reason} when OID :: snmp:oid(), Type :: atom(), Reason :: term().
Retrieve the type (asn1 bertype) of an oid.
-spec register_agent(UserId, TargetName, Config) -> ok | {error, Reason} when UserId :: user_id(), TargetName :: target_name(), Config :: [ConfigEntry], ConfigEntry :: {Item, Value}, Item :: agent_config_item(), Value :: term(), Reason :: term().
Explicitly instruct the manager to handle this agent, with UserId as the
responsible user.
Called to instruct the manager that this agent shall be handled. This function is used when the user knows in advance which agents the manager shall handle. Note that there is an alternate way to do the same thing: Add the agent to the manager config files (see agents.conf).
TargetName is a non-empty string, uniquely identifying the agent.
The type of Val depends on Item:
[mandatory] engine_id = engine_id()
[mandatory] address = inet:ip_address() % Depends on tdomain
[optional] port = inet:port_number()
[optional] tdomain = snmp:tdomain()
[optional] community = snmp:community()
[optional] timeout = register_timeout()
[optional] max_message_size = snmp:mms()
[optional] version = snmp:version()
[optional] sec_model = snmp:sec_model()
[optional] sec_name = snmp:sec_name()
[optional] sec_level = snmp:sec_level()Note that if no tdomain is given, the default value, transportDomainUdpIpv4,
is used.
Note that if no port is given and if taddress does not contain a port
number, the default value is used.
-spec register_user(UserId, Module, Data) -> ok | {error, Reason} when UserId :: user_id(), Module :: snmpm_user(), Data :: term(), Reason :: term().
Equivalent to register_user/4
-spec register_user(UserId, Module, Data, DefaultAgentConfig) -> ok | {error, Reason} when UserId :: user_id(), Module :: snmpm_user(), Data :: term(), DefaultAgentConfig :: [DefaultConfigEntry], DefaultConfigEntry :: {Item, Value}, Item :: agent_config_item(), Value :: term(), Reason :: term().
Register the manager entity (=user) responsible for specific agent(s).
Module is the callback module (snmpm_user behaviour) which will be called
whenever something happens (detected agent, incoming reply or incoming
trap/notification).
Data is an opaque data structure, not inspected by the manager, that will be
included in all callback calls to the Module callback module (snmpm_user
behaviour).
The argument DefaultAgentConfig is used as default values when this user
register agents.
Note that this operation (register user) could have already been done as a consequence of the node config. (see users.conf).
-spec register_user_monitor(UserId, Module, Data) -> ok | {error, Reason} when UserId :: user_id(), Module :: snmpm_user(), Data :: term(), Reason :: term().
Equivalent to register_user_monitor/4
-spec register_user_monitor(UserId, Module, Data, DefaultAgentConfig) -> ok | {error, Reason} when UserId :: user_id(), Module :: snmpm_user(), Data :: term(), DefaultAgentConfig :: [DefaultConfigEntry], DefaultConfigEntry :: {Item, Value}, Item :: agent_config_item(), Value :: term(), Reason :: term().
Register the monitored manager entity (=user) responsible for specific agent(s).
The process performing the registration will be monitored. Which means that if that process should die, all agents registered by that user process will be unregistered. All outstanding requests will be canceled.
Module is the callback module (snmpm_user behaviour) which will be called
whenever something happens (detected agent, incoming reply or incoming
trap/notification).
Data is an opaque data structure, not inspected by the manager, that will be
included in all callback calls to the Module callback module (snmpm_user
behaviour).
The argument DefaultAgentConfig is used as default values when this user
register agents.
-spec register_usm_user(EngineID, UserName, Config) -> ok | {error, Reason} when EngineID :: snmp:engine_id(), UserName :: snmp:usm_name(), Config :: [ConfigEntry], ConfigEntry :: {Item, Value}, Item :: usm_config_item(), Value :: term(), Reason :: term().
Explicitly instruct the manager to handle this USM user. Note that there is an alternate way to do the same thing: Add the usm user to the manager config files (see usm.conf).
-spec restart(What) -> snmp:void() when What :: net_if.
Restart the indicated process (What). Note that its not without risk to
restart a process, and should therefore be used with care.
-spec set_log_type(NewType) -> {ok, OldType} | {error, Reason} when NewType :: snmp:atl_type(), OldType :: snmp:atl_type(), Reason :: term().
Changes the run-time Audit Trail log type.
Note that this has no effect on the application configuration as defined by configuration files, so a node restart will revert the config to whatever is in those files.
This function is primarily useful in testing/debugging scenarios.

Synchronous get-request.
Remaining is the remaining time of the given (or default) timeout time.
When Reason is {send_failed, ...} it means that the netif process failed
to send the (get-request ) message. This could happen because of any number
of reasons, i.e. encoding error.
_ActualReason is the actual reason in this case.
The send option extra specifies an opaque data structure passed on to the
net-if process. The net-if process included in this application makes, with one
exception, no use of this info, so the only use for it (when using the built in
net-if) would be tracing. The one usage exception is: Any tuple with
snmpm_extra_info_tag as its first element is reserved for internal use.
Some of the send options (community, sec_model, sec_name, sec_level and
max_message_size) are override options. That is, for this request, they
override any configuration done when the agent was registered.
For SnmpInfo, see the user callback function
handle_report.
