NAME
     snmpwalk - communicates with a network entity using SNMP GET
          NEXT Requests.

SYNOPSIS
     snmpwalk host [-n] [-pport ] [-ccommunity] [-ttimeout] [
     -rretrycnt]
          [-irequestID] [variable]

DESCRIPTION
     snmpwalk is an SNMP application that uses GET NEXT Requests
     to query for a tree of information about a network entity
     host.

OPTIONS
     -n   Show network addresses as numbers (normally snmpwalk
          interprets addresses and attempts to display them sym-
          bolically).

     -p   allows the user to select the remote port.

     -c   allows the user to select the community name.  The
          default is public.

     -t   allows the user to set the timeout value in seconds.
          The default is to wait forever.

     -r   allows the user to set the number of retries after a
          timeout.  The default is to retry 3 times.

     -i   allows the user to specify his management request.  The
          default is zero.

     variable
          A variable may be given on the command line.  This
          variable specifies which portion of the object identi-
          fierspace will be searched using GET NEXT Requests.
          All variables in the subtree below the given variable
          are queried and their values presented to the user.
          Each variable name is given in the format of
          A.B.C.D..., where A, B, C, and D are subidentifiers in
          decimal notation.

     If the variable argument is not present, snmpwalk will
     search the entire MIB.

     For example

          snmpwalk mips.mips.com system

     will retrieve the variables sysDescr.0, sysObjectID.0 and
     sysUpTime.0:

          Name: iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib.system.sysDescr.0
          OctetString: """mips mips 4_0 UMIPS mips m1000
          ATT_V3_0"""

          Name: system.sysObjectID.0
          ObjectId:
          .iso.org.dod.internet.private.enterprises.MIPS.M1000

          Name: iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib.system.sysUpTime.0
          Timeticks: (2270351) 6:18:23

     If the network entity has an error processing the request
     packet, an error packet will be returned and a message will
     be shown, helping to pinpoint why the request was malformed.

     If the tree search causes attempts to search beyond the end
     of the MIB, a message will be displayed:

          End of MIB.
