Simulation of multiple Agents

[Frank Fock]

Hi Vijay,

By default AGENT++ binds all IP addresses of the local host.
But I am not sure if your question goes in this direction?
To "simulate" multiple SNMP agents with a single application
seems to be impossible. But may be you something like a
SNMP proxy agent. A proxy agent can be implemented with
AGENT++. The "multiple agents" are then addressed by
different context engine IDs (SNMPv3) or different communities
(SNMPv1/v2c).

Best regards,
Frank
