NAME
     snmptable - retrieve an SNMP table and display it in tabular
     form

SYNOPSIS
     snmptable [COMMON OPTIONS] [-Cb]  [-CB]  [-Ch]  [-CH]  [-Ci]
     [-Cf STRING] [-Cw WIDTH] AGENT TABLE-OID

DESCRIPTION
     snmptable  is  an  SNMP application that repeatedly uses the
     SNMP GETNEXT or GETBULK requests to query for information on
     a  network  entity.  The parameter TABLE-OID must specify an
     SNMP table.

     snmptable is an SNMP application that  repeatedly  uses  the
     SNMP  GETNEXT  or GETBULK requests to query for  information
     on a network entity.  The parameter TABLE-OID  must  specify
     an SNMP table.

     AGENT  identifies a target SNMP agent, which is instrumented
     to monitor the gievn objects.  At its  simplest,  the  AGENT
     specification will consist of a hostname or an IPv4 address.
     In this situation, the command  will  attempt  communication
     with the agent, using UDP/IPv4 to port 161 of the given tar-
     get host. See snmpcmd(1) for a full  list  of  the  possible
     formats for AGENT.

OPTIONS
     COMMON OPTIONS
             Please  see snmpcmd(1) for a list of possible values
             for COMMON OPTIONS as well as their descriptions.

     -Cb     Display only a brief heading. Any common  prefix  of
             the table field names will be deleted.

     -CB     Do  not  use GETBULK requests to retrieve data, only
             GETNEXT.

     -Cc CHARS
             Print table in columns of CHARS characters width.

     -Cf STRING
             The string STRING is used to separate table columns.
             With  this  option, each table entry will be printed
             in compact form, just with the string given to sepa-
             rate  the  columns  (useful if you want to import it
             into a database).  Otherwise it is printed in nicely
             aligned columns.

     -Ch     Display only the column headings.

     -CH     Do not display the column headings.

     -Ci     This  option  prepends the index of the entry to all
             printed lines.

     -Cl     Left justify the data in each column.

     -Cr REPEATERS
             For GETBULK requests, REPEATERS specifies  the  max-
             repeaters  value  to  use.   For  GETNEXT  requests,
             REPEATERS  specifies  the  number  of   entries   to
             retrieve at a time.

     -Cw WIDTH
             Specifies  the  width of the lines when the table is
             printed.  If the lines will  be  longer,  the  table
             will be printed in sections of at most WIDTH charac-
             ters.  If WIDTH is less than the length of the  con-
             tents  of  a  single column, then that single column
             will still be printed.

BUGS
     The test for TABLE-OID actually specifying a table is rather
     heuristic.  Note also that the test  requires  the  defining
     MIB file to be loaded.
