| .SH "DETAILED DESCRIPTION" |
| .PP |
| The multiplexer helper lets you split the calling chain depending on the calling mode (get vs getnext vs set). |
| .PP |
| Useful if you want different routines to handle different aspects of SNMP requests, which is very common for GET vs SET type actions. |
| .PP |
| Functionally: |
| .PP |
| .TP |
| GET requests call the get_method |
| .TP |
| GETNEXT requests call the getnext_method, or if not present, the get_method. |
| .TP |
| GETBULK requests call the getbulk_method, or if not present, the getnext_method, or if even that isn't present the get_method. |
| .TP |
| SET requests call the set_method, or if not present return a SNMP_ERR_NOTWRITABLE error. |
