SNMPGETNEXT(1)			    Net-SNMP			  SNMPGETNEXT(1)

NAME
     snmpgetnext  -  communicates  with  a network entity using SNMP GETNEXT re-
     quests

SYNOPSIS
     snmpgetnext [COMMON OPTIONS] [-Cf] AGENT OID [OID]...

DESCRIPTION
     snmpgetnext is an SNMP application that uses the SNMP  GETNEXT  request  to
     query  for information on a network entity.  One or more object identifiers
     (OIDs) may be given as arguments on the command line.  Each  variable  name
     is  given in the format specified in variables(5).  For each one, the vari-
     able that is lexicographically "next" in the remote entity's  MIB	will  be
     returned.

     For example:

     snmpgetnext -c public zeus interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifType.1

     will retrieve the variable interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifType.2:

     interfaces.ifTable.ifEntry.ifType.2 = softwareLoopback(24)

     If  the network entity has an error processing the request packet, an error
     message will be shown, helping to pinpoint in what way the request was mal-
     formed.

OPTIONS
     -Cf     If -Cf is not specified, some applications (snmpdelta, snmpget, sn-
	     mpgetnext and snmpstatus) will try to fix errors  returned  by  the
	     agent  that  you  were talking to and resend the request.	The only
	     time this is really useful is if you specified a  OID  that  didn't
	     exist  in	your request and you're using SNMPv1 which requires "all
	     or nothing" kinds of requests.

     In addition to this option, snmpgetnext takes the common options  described
     in  the snmpcmd(1) manual page.  Note that snmpgetnext REQUIRES an argument
     specifying the agent to query and at least one OID argument,  as  described
     there.
