#SNMP - Simple GET

Question

I've been looking at #SNMP, which seems to be the most complete SNMP library in C#. However, I find that the documentation is quite lacking, merely pointing to the source code, which is completely void of comments :-)

Now I'm not a professional developer so this probably comes from me, and surely professional developers can make sense of a complex API by just looking at non-commented code. So I'm looking of a simple implementation of "Get the value of the specified OID."

Would anybody be able to provide the sheer minimum code required to poll equipments using that lib?

Yes and it seems fairly incomplete - no remote IP is being specified etc, for instance. — Astaar, Mar 18 '13 at 14:06

It seems that a more adequate lib to use is SNMP Sharp Net. It's much better documented with a full range of examples, and more features than #SNMP it seems.

"more than #SNMP" is kind of an illusion, http://www.lextm.com/2012/07/sharpsnmp-vs-snmpsharpnet.html – Lex Li Mar 31 '13 at 12:38

Somebody got so pissed he rated down both the answer and the response? Wow :) Maybe I was too subjective. But then again, the blog you quoted states "Fine. As I am the developer of #SNMP, this post must be biased." – Astaar Apr 02 '13 at 11:52
@Astaar - Just fwiw, the "blog [he] quoted" turns out to be *his* blog. Kinda surprised he didn't include some code with the drive-by! ;^) Guess the link to *his* CodeProject post from his earlier comment has the answer. That said, to be fair, this accepted answer (yours, natch; heavy nepotism time at SO here ;^D) doesn't literally answer your question's request for `the sheer minimum code required to poll equipments using that lib [#SNMP]` either. – ruffin Oct 22 '14 at 17:14
