NAME

       snmptable - retrieve an SNMP table and display it in tabular form

SYNOPSIS

       snmptable  [COMMON  OPTIONS]  [-Cb] [-CB] [-Ch] [-CH] [-Ci] [-Cf STRING] [-Cw WIDTH] AGENT
       TABLE-OID

DESCRIPTION

       snmptable is an SNMP application that repeatedly uses the SNMP GETNEXT or GETBULK requests
       to  query  for  information  on a network entity.  The parameter TABLE-OID must specify an
       SNMP table.

       AGENT identifies a target SNMP agent, which is instrumented to monitor the given  objects.
       At  its  simplest,  the AGENT specification will consist of a hostname or an IPv4 address.
       In this situation, the command will attempt communication with the agent,  using  UDP/IPv4
       to  port  161  of  the  given  target host. See snmpcmd(1) for a full list of the possible
       formats for AGENT.

OPTIONS

COMMON OPTIONS
Please see snmpcmd(1) for a list of possible values for COMMON OPTIONS as well as
their descriptions.

-Cb Display only a brief heading. Any common prefix of the table field names will be
deleted.

-CB Do not use GETBULK requests to retrieve data, only GETNEXT.

-Cc CHARS
Print table in columns of CHARS characters width.

-Cf STRING
The string STRING is used to separate table columns. With this option, each table
entry will be printed in compact form, just with the string given to separate the
columns (useful if you want to import it into a database). Otherwise it is
printed in nicely aligned columns.

-Ch Display only the column headings.

-CH Do not display the column headings.

-Ci This option prepends the index of the entry to all printed lines.

-Cl Left justify the data in each column.

-Cr REPEATERS
For GETBULK requests, REPEATERS specifies the max-repeaters value to use. For
GETNEXT requests, REPEATERS specifies the number of entries to retrieve at a time.

-Cw WIDTH
Specifies the width of the lines when the table is printed. If the lines will be
longer, the table will be printed in sections of at most WIDTH characters. If
WIDTH is less than the length of the contents of a single column, then that single
column will still be printed.

Note that snmptable REQUIRES an argument specifying the agent to query and exactly one
OID argument, as described in the snmpcmd(1) manual page. This OID must be that of a MIB
table object.

EXAMPLES

       $ snmptable -v 2c -c public localhost at.atTable
