Accessing Multiple Instance Modules

SNMPv2 uses the term context for the MIBs that can have multiple instances of the module loaded on the agent. If you use an SNMPv2-based third-party management station to communicate with this type of agent, be sure that you are using the right context information. However, if you are using a SNMPv1-based management station, then add the context information to the SNMP community as follows:

community:context

By adding this context information, you can access data from multiple instances of the same module running on an agent.
