Hi Bruno,

Have you checked out SNMP4J-Agent already? It provides
a lot of features to help writing an agent - especially
when combined with AgenPro (http://www.agentpp.com).

If you really want to write an agent with SNMP4J alone,
then you basically need to implement the CommandResponder
interface.

Best regards,
Frank
