[SNMP4J] snmp4j vs. Westhawk

[Per Cederberg]

Frank (and Ian),

Many thanks for the answers regarding the Westhawk SNMP
stack. I haven't used it myself (not really doing any
SNMP hacking) but now that you mention it I see that it
doesn't have any agent functionality... One point in
favor of SNMP4J.

As you seem to think SNMP4J is stable enough, I'll add a
link to SNMP4J from the www.mibble.org web page.

No, this is currently not possible. Haven't seen this
myself so is it really according to standard? It might
not be so hard to fix, but I haven't had anyone
requesting this yet...

Yes, if you mean refering to symbols by MODULE.SYMBOL
inside the MIB file.
