Re: SNMP Support in PHP

[Mark C. <mc...@ya...>]

Hi Robert,
Many features available in the PERL module are missing
from the SNMP module in PHP.  SNMP v2c support is
missing and non-blocking via callback hasn't been
implemented either.  Currently the PHP module supports
v1 gets/walks/sets and v3 is undocumented, but
implemented in a limited form.

Currently the module is about 1200 lines of relatively
simple code.  I would guess that adding v2c bulkwalk
support, the ability to set the version you would like
to use, and non-blocking callbacks would take no more
than 300 more lines of code.  Probably an afternoon or
two for someone as skilled as yourselves.

Since I'm not the greatest C developer, and am very
familiar with PHP, I can write any necessary
documentation for the module and additions if you
like.

The PHP community would benefit for years to come.

'njoy,
Mark
