NAME
     gsnmp-get - retrieve data from an SNMP agent

SYNOPSIS
     gsnmp-get [options] uri

DESCRIPTION
     gsnmp-get	retrieves information from network devices using the Simple Net-
     work Management Protocol (SNMP). The data to be retrieved is specified  us-
     ing  the  Uniform	Resource Identifier (URI) syntax for SNMP defined in RFC
     4088.

     The uri argument identifies the SNMP agent to talk to and which data should
     be retrieved.

     It should be noted that gsnmp-get is not aware of MIB definitions and  thus
     is  only able to output raw data (no nice formatting or translation of OIDs
     into a more human friendly syntax). A simple way to work around this  limi-
     tation is to pipe the output through the smixlate program, which is part of
     the libsmi package.

OPTIONS
     scli accepts the following options:

     -s, --silent
	    Keep silent and produce no output.

     -r N, --repeats=N
	    Executes the data retrieval N times.

EXAMPLES
     Retrieve the SNMPv2-MIB::system subtree:

	    gsnmp-get snmp://public@device//1.3.6.1.2.1.1.*

     Retrieve the SNMPv2-MIB::system subtree, piping through smixlate:

	    gsnmp-get	snmp://public@device//1.3.6.1.2.1.1.*	|  smixlate  SN-
	    MPv2-MIB
