    <p>I have the following example from the pysnmp page: # GET Command Generator from pysnmp.entity.rfc3413.oneliner import cmdgen</p> <pre><code>errorIndication, errorStatus, \ errorIndex, varBinds = cmdgen.CommandGenerator().getCmd( # SNMP v1 # cmdgen.CommunityData('test-agent', 'public', 0), # SNMP v2 cmdgen.CommunityData('test-agent', 'public'), # SNMP v3 # cmdgen.UsmUserData('test-user', 'authkey1', 'privkey1'), cmdgen.UdpTransportTarget(('localhost', 161)), # Plain OID (1,3,6,1,2,1,1,1,0), # ((mib-name, mib-symbol), instance-id) (('SNMPv2-MIB', 'sysDescr'), 0) ) if errorIndication: print errorIndication else: if errorStatus: print '%s at %s\n' % ( errorStatus.prettyPrint(), errorIndex and varBinds[int(errorIndex)-1] or '?' ) else: for name, val in varBinds: print '%s = %s' % (name.prettyPrint(), val.prettyPrint()) </code></pre> <p>I made sure that SNMP is running on my machine. I checked in the console with the following command:</p> <pre><code>snmpget -v2c -Cf -c public localhost 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 </code></pre> <p>Which worked fine. If i execute the python code above I get the following error:</p> <pre><code>SmiError: MIB module "pysnmp/smi/mibs/SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB.py" load error: MIB module "pysnmp/smi/mibs/SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB.py" load error: Bad OctetString initializer '[128, 0, 79, 184, 5, 192, 168, 1, 50, 371, 210, 26, 162, 157]' </code></pre> <p>The numbers at the end change with each execution (seems to a timestamp or somehting like that). I'm using python 2.7 and the most recent version of pySNMP (4.2.1). Does anyone know what's the problem with this example code?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
