auth_ptr->packlet->octet_ptr points
to the packet and auth_ptr->packlet->length points to the packet's
length. This packlet is freed when
free_authentication(SLIB-osr5)
is called, so it should be copied (using bcopy (see
bstring(S-osr5))
to a holding area; alternatively,
the authentication should not be freed until the packet is
actually sent. Once this has been done, the authentication can be
freed with a call to free_authentication.
free_authentication
frees all memory associated with a trivial
authentication header data structure, including the actual
SNMPv1 packet that
build_authentication(SLIB-osr5)
creates and the octet string associated with
make_authentication(SLIB-osr5).
The PDU structure pointed to by the pdu_ptr passed
to make_authentication is NOT touched.
make_authentication is used to create a library format authentication header data structure for use by build_authentication(SLIB-osr5). This particular implementation of the library creates an authentication header based on the ``trivial'' authentication put forth by RFC 1098, which calls for a community octet string usually based on text. The header and the octet string associated with the header are freed when free_authentication(SLIB-osr5) is called with the authentication pointer.
parse_authentication
is used to create a library format authentication header
data structure from an incoming SNMPv1 packet. If parsing errors
occur, a message is output to standard error and the routine
returns NULL. Otherwise, the community_ptr part of the
structure should be checked for authentication and the pointer
passed on to
parse_pdu(SLIB-osr5)
for further ASN.1 parsing. It should be
noted that the state of the authentication header created during the
building phase after a call to
build_authentication(SLIB-osr5)
is nearly
symmetrical to the state of the authentication header after
this call on the parsing side.
build_v1_mesg_from_pdu is used to create an outgoing SNMPv1 packet for an outgoing PDU. If any errors occur during the building, an error message is output, all the structures allocated are freed, and it returns with a NOTOK. Otherwise, the ``community'' and the ``pdu'' are used in building the ASN.1 encoding of the outgoing SNMPv1 message.
get_pdu_from_v1_mesg is used to extract an encapsulated PDU from an incoming SNMPv1 packet. All the authentication information which is present in the packet is also extracted, but it is discarded.
print_packet_out prints out the contents of a buffer, in hex at 20 bytes per line. It is called with a pointer to the buffer to be displayed, and the number of buffer bytes to be displayed. This call is frequently used in debugging code to display the actual SNMP message that has been received; this allows hand parsing of the message. It is generally unsuitable for a production user interface.
