MibProxy based on table index

[Chris Paulsen]

Hello!


I'm trying to develop a  variant of the sample proxy agent for v1 and v2c 
agents that goes to a different sub-agent based on the index into a table. 
Only get and get-next requests are allowed on the sub-agents. Each subagent 
would be bound to provide certain rows from the table. Is this possible?

If anyone has any suggestions as to what MibProxy methods I would need to 
override I would be very grateful?

I was thinking of the following:

1. Derive class from MibProxy which takes additional parameters in the 
constructor consisting of a map of the index portion of Oid and the 
corresponding source.

2. Override get_request and find_succ so that they set the internal 
'source' for the MibProxy objects to the one specific for a given index. 
Call the base class (MibProxy) methods get_request and find_succ from the 
derived class.


Does this sound like it should work and make sense? Does anyone have a more 
elegant idea?


Thanks,
    Chris Paulsen
