I wrote a similiar question here but did not get an answer which solve my problem, so I write the question again on stackoverflow and hope that somebody can help me.
Here is a runnable example about my problem. Packet out_buf_0
represent a valid SNMP packet and can send via UDP. Packet out_buf_1
is the same packet like out_buf_0
with one character more at the end 0x64
. Further, I raised all length + 1 because of the additional character. Why is out_buf_1 not a valid SNMPv1 packet/why can it not send via UDP? Note: The SNMP request can not display in terminal because the request id from client is different from out_buf_0
and out_buf_1
, take a look in wireshark to see the request/response. The whole frame length including my SNMPv1 packet out_buf_0
is 1368 bits, out_buf_1
should 1376 bits.
