SNMP API for Java

There is a newer version: 3.8.2




org.snmp4j.transport




Provides transport protocol mappings for SNMP.

The org.snmp4j.transport classes are capable of sending and
receiving byte messages to and from a network using transport mapping specific
transport protocol. All SNMP4J transport mappings have to implement the
org.snmp4j.TransportMapping interface. SNMP4J supports two
transport mappings for the transport protocols UDP and TCP:



  The UDP transport mapping is the default SNMP transport mapping. It is
  implemented by the DefaultUdpTransportMapping class.


  The TCP transport mapping is implemented by the
  DefaultTcpTransportMapping using the java.nio
  package.



  Additional transport mappings can be easily added. It is sufficient to
  implement the org.snmp4j.TransportMapping interface and add
  an instance of that class to the Snmp
  (or MessageDispatcher)
  object. To be able to lookup a transport mapping by an Address
  class via the TransportMappings (as Snmp does
  for notification listeners), a transport mapping has to be registered
  in a transport mapping registration file. The default file is
  transports.properties in the org.snmp4j.transport
  package. To use a different file, set the system property
  org.snmp4j.transportMappings.

		Connection-oriented transport mappings like TCP should implement 
		the ConnectionOrientedTransportMapping interface to support 
		MessageLengthDecoder and TransportStateListener.
