The +SNMP stack was written from scratch to provide an efficient and +portable tcl SNMP extension. MIB extensions can be written in tcl by +running the scotty extension as an SNMP agent. This allows you to +implement your own specific MIB without getting in contact with the +lowlevel ASN.1/BER stuff. + +tkined, a very nice graphical network monitoring tool based on scotty +is available as pkgsrc/net/tkined. |
