Abstract
Network Management (NMS) application vendors, often encounter
a situation where the device being managed or tested (which includes
an SNMP agent) is not available at the time of the NMS application
development, whereupon this becomes the critical path in the development
cycle of the new device. To shorten this critical path, we've
developed GeNMSim, which is a Tcl/Tk based Multi Platform SNMP
agent simulator. The main features of GeNMSim are user customisation
using Tcl callbacks, Portability across Unix and Window95/NT platforms
and automatic creation of the simulator database by a set of Tcl
based tools. GeNMSim is a commercial product targeted at Data
Communication and Telecommunication companies involved in SNMP
development.
