     (see "Compilers and Options" on changing the compiler to use)

  2) Optionally edit include/net-snmp/net-snmp-config.h
     (due to prompting done by the configure script, this is very rarely
      necessary.)

  3) make

  4) Run the next command as root:
  5) make install

  6) configure the agent
     (either using 'snmpconf' or by crafting an snmpd.conf file manually.
      The file 'EXAMPLE.conf' may be a suitable starting point)

--------------------------------

### Detailed Compilation Steps

Source: http://www.net-snmp.org/docs/INSTALL.html

Comprehensive steps for compiling the package, including testing and installation.

```bash
  1. `cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type
     `./configure' to configure the package for your system.  If you're
     using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type
     `sh ./configure' instead to prevent `csh' from trying to execute
     `configure' itself.

     Running `configure' takes awhile.  While running, it prints some
     messages telling which features it is checking for.  When it
     completes it prints a short message (also available in configure-summary)
     indicating what functionality will be available when compiled.

  2. If necessary, edit include/net-snmp/net-snmp-config.h (see above).  

  3. Type `make' to compile the package.

  4. Type `make test' which runs a variety of tests to see what functionality
     has been incorporated and if it works.

  5. Type `make install' to install the programs and any data files and
     documentation.
```

        if 500 octets of a packet have been stored in the
        associated capture buffer and this object is set to
        100, then the captureBufferPacket object that
        contains the packet will contain bytes starting
        100 octets into the packet."

### init_mib

Source: http://www.net-snmp.org/docs/man/mib_api.html

Convenience function to initialize the MIB framework.

```APIDOC
## void init_mib(void)

### Description
Configures the MIB directory search path, sets up internal MIB structures, and loads appropriate MIB modules. Should be called before any other routine that manipulates or accesses the MIB tree.
```

### Define ifTestType

Source: http://www.net-snmp.org/docs/mibs/ifMIBObjects.html

Control variable for starting and stopping interface tests, including the noTest identifier.

```text
A control variable used to start and stop operator-
initiated interface tests.  Most OBJECT IDENTIFIER values
assigned to tests are defined elsewhere, in association with
specific types of interface.  However, this document assigns
a value for a full-duplex loopback test, and defines the
special meanings of the subject identifier:

    noTest  OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { 0 0 }

When the value noTest is written to this object, no action
is taken unless a test is in progress, in which case the
test is aborted.  Writing any other value to this object is

only valid when no test is currently in progress, in which
case the indicated test is initiated.

When read, this object always returns the most recent value
that ifTestType was set to.  If it has not been set since
the last initialization of the network management subsystem
on the agent, a value of noTest is returned.
```

### Basic SNMP Get Request

### Define hrSWInstalledGroup in SMIv2

Source: http://www.net-snmp.org/docs/mibs/HOST-RESOURCES-MIB.txt

Defines the hrSWInstalledGroup object group containing installed software monitoring objects.

```mib
hrSWInstalledGroup OBJECT-GROUP
        OBJECTS {
            hrSWInstalledLastChange,
            hrSWInstalledLastUpdateTime,
            hrSWInstalledIndex, hrSWInstalledName,
            hrSWInstalledID, hrSWInstalledType,
            hrSWInstalledDate
        }
        STATUS current
        DESCRIPTION
            "The Host Resources Installed Software Group."
        ::= { hrMIBGroups 6 }
```
