Dear All,
        I am attempting to create a device running an SNMP agent.  As a=20
start I have built the snmpv3_nvm_mpfs demo app under MPLAB Harmony and=20
can access its web and SNMP interfaces.  With the device connected to a=20
dual boot PC, under Windows 7 I can properly interrogate the SNMP agent=20
using the iReasoning browser recommenced by Microchip in the MPLAB Harmony=
=20
documentation.  In particular I can read the push-button status and turn=20
the board's LEDs on and off.

Under Linux, using the snmpwalk, snmpget & snmpset command line tools=20
there are problems.  Snmpwalk returns only a small fraction of the agent's=
=20
name-space, eg.

root@RM:/home/tom# snmpwalk -On -c public -v 1 mechpboard_e
..1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 =3D STRING: Microchip Harmony
..1.3.6.1.2.1.1.2.0 =3D OID: .1.3.6.1.4.1.17095.1
..1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0 =3D Timeticks: (60130) 0:10:01.30
..1.3.6.1.2.1.1.4.0 =3D STRING: admin
..1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 =3D STRING: Microchip
..1.3.6.1.2.1.1.6.0 =3D STRING: office
..1.3.6.1.2.1.1.7.0 =3D INTEGER: 7

Specifying the OID reported by the iReasoning browser running under=20
Windows for one of the board's LEDs with snmpset; or a push-button using=20
snmpget always fails.

I also tried the net-snmp toolkit's tkmib browser which loops with an=20
error and again does not find the agent's LED or push-button hardware.

I have copied the mchip.mib and snmp.mib MIB files into (at different=20
times) both /usr/share/snmp/mibs/ and ~/.snmp/mibs but without effect.

Similarly specifying SNMP v1 or v2c on the command line makes no=20
difference.

I really don't want to be tied to Windows for development and more=20
importantly I need the device to work with the Unix or any other SNMP
client.  Can anyone explain what might be wrong or supply working examples=
=20
of net-snmp commands to access the board's push-button/LEDs?  Please let=20
me know if I've omitted anything pertinent.

Many thanks
Tom Crane
