 Interactive SNMP tool.

*Snimpy* is a Python-based tool providing a simple interface to build

SNMP query. Here is a very simplistic example that allows us to

display the routing table of a given host::

    load("IP-FORWARD-MIB")

    m=M("localhost", "public", 2)

    routes = m.ipCidrRouteNextHop

    for x in routes:

        net, netmask, tos, src = x

        print("%15s/%-15s via %-15s src %-15s" % (net, netmask, routes[x], src))

You can either use *Snimpy* interactively throught its console

(derived from Python own console or from IPython_ if available) or

write *Snimpy* scripts which are just Python scripts with some global

variables available.

* Free software: ISC license

* Documentation: http://snimpy.rtfd.org.

*Snimpy* requires libsmi_ to work correctly. See the documentation for

more information.

Features

--------

*Snimpy* is aimed at being the more Pythonic possible. You should forget

that you are doing SNMP requests. *Snimpy* will rely on MIB to hide SNMP

details. Here are some "features":

* MIB parser based on libsmi  (through CFFI)

* SNMP requests are handled by PySNMP (SNMPv1, SNMPv2 and SNMPv3

  support)

* scalars are just attributes of your session object

* columns are like a Python dictionary and made available as an

  attribute

* getting an attribute is like issuing a GET method

* setting an attribute is like issuing a SET method

* iterating over a table is like using GETNEXT

* when something goes wrong, you get an exception
