[SNMP4J] CounterEvent

[Frederic Provot]

In fact I was trying to understand how counters are managed. Through the 
given examples (AgentTest and SnmpRequest) I've been able to GET or SET 
values of the test IfMIB, and add new value not yet set. But I couldn't 
figure out how to set counters.

For example I have set a new 'ifIndex' value, 'ifDescr' and 'ifSpeed' for 
example (even though they are in read-only, usign your agentppSimMode), but 
for 'ifCountOctet' for example, setting is not possible with a "Wrong Type" 
error. I tried all the data types usable with SnmpRequest but couldn't succeed.

It looks like counters are only managed on internal warnings, but not from 
external query. So how can I set some mib counters? I must miss something...

Best regards
Frederic
