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 con-
       sist 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 target host. See snmpcmd(1) for a full list of the	possi-
       ble 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 separate 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 characters.  If WIDTH is less than the	length
	       of  the	contents  of  a single column, then that single column
	       will still be printed.

EXAMPLES
       $ snmptable -v 2c -c public localhost at.atTable

       $ snmptable -v 2c -c public -Cf + localhost at.atTable

       SNMP table: at.atTable

       $ snmptable localhost -Cl -CB -Ci -OX -Cb -Cc 16 -Cw 64 ifTable

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.
