[SNMP4J] getTable()

[Frank Fock]

Hello Ken,

Misusing getTable() for BULK retrieval is not
efficient. I would strongly recommend using
GETBULK requests instead!

The timeout occurs probably because the agent
tries to return objects that are costly to
retrieve from internal sub-systems and your
timeout value is too small to allow that.

Best regards,
Frank
