>Summary: Agent returns wrong values for udp scalar objects w/ IPv6

Initial Comment:
uname: Linux 2.6.18.2-34-default
Distribution: OpenSUSE 10.2
NET-SNMP version: 5.5.dev (CVS 2007/Feb/23)
configuration: --enable-ipv6

Problem Description:

                     The objects udpInDatagrams, udpNoPorts, udpInErrors, udpOutDatagrams, which fall under udp scalar objects. The agent returns incorrect values for the above objects, as the current implementation reads the info from only /proc/net/snmp.
When using ipv6 traffic the value is updated in /proc/net/snmp6. So the correct value should be sum of both ipv4 stats and ipv6 stats. Currently only ipv4 stats are displayed. Ipv6 stats for the above objects are ignored.

Solution:

          The above problem is solved by reading /proc/net/snmp6 also. Hence solving the problem.
