Create an SNMP session to be used for all our requests

session = Session(hostname=’demo.snmplabs.com’, community=’public’, version=2)

You may retrieve an individual OID using an SNMP GET

location = session.get(‘sysLocation.0’)

You may also specify the OID as a tuple (name, index)

Note: the index is specified as a string as it can be of other types than

just a regular integer

contact = session.get((‘sysContact’, ‘0’))

And of course, you may use the numeric OID too

description = session.get(‘.1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0’)

Set a variable using an SNMP SET

session.set(‘sysLocation.0’, ‘The SNMP Lab’)

Perform an SNMP walk

system_items = session.walk(‘system’)

but also has several extended attributes with SNMP-specific information

for item in system_items:
print ‘{oid}.{oid_index} {snmp_type} = {value}’.format(
oid=item.oid,
oid_index=item.oid_index,
snmp_type=item.snmp_type,
value=item.value
)
