net-snmp                                           multiplexer(3)



NAME
     multiplexer - Splits mode requests into calls to different
     handlers.


  Functions
     netsnmp_mib_handler * netsnmp_get_multiplexer_handler
         (netsnmp_mib_handler_methods *req)
         returns a multiplixer handler given a
         netsnmp_mib_handler_methods structure of subhandlers.
     int netsnmp_multiplexer_helper_handler (netsnmp_mib_handler
         *handler, netsnmp_handler_registration *reginfo,
         netsnmp_agent_request_info *reqinfo, netsnmp_request_inf
         implements the multiplexer helper

Detailed Description
     Splits mode requests into calls to different handlers.

     The multiplexer helper lets you split the calling chain
     depending on the calling mode (get vs getnext vs set).
     Useful if you want different routines to handle different
     aspects of SNMP requests, which is very common for GET vs
     SET type actions.

     Functionally:

     1.  GET requests call the get_method

     2.  GETNEXT requests call the getnext_method, or if not
         present, the get_method.

     3.  GETBULK requests call the getbulk_method, or if not
         present, the getnext_method, or if even that isn't
         present the get_method.

     4.  SET requests call the set_method, or if not present
         return a SNMP_ERR_NOTWRITABLE error.
