[SNMP4J] ipAdEntAddr not being sent from agent to management software

[Jeff Garrett]

Hi all.
I am using the SNMP4J-Agent to simulate being an actual network element
(NE).  So far, it is going well, except for one small thing.

When communicating with upper level management software, the GET requests
are responding properly.  However, when the management software issues a
request for the OID for a key called "ipAdEntAddr" the agent does not return
an OID.  An exception is thrown stating that it cannot parse the OID string
for <ipAdEndAddr>.  I have connected to a real NE and seen the printouts and
logs, and the real NE returns an OID for this key and the real IP
Address(es).  However, the agent does not return an OID nor its IP Address
and it does not show up in the prinouts and logs.

Has anyone else seen this before?  Does anyone know what I can do to the
agent (and where)?  I set the address field to the proper IP address
(otherwise I couldn't conenct ti it and issue get/set requests).  I don't
understand why the agent wouldn't return its own IP Address here.

I have been debugging all day today and am lost for what else I can do.
Hopefully someone can help me here.

Thanks.
Jeff Garrett
