Method Detail

setAcmUsed

public abstract void setAcmUsed(boolean used)

This method is used to set the acmUsed flag. Only if this flag is set to true, the access verifications are performed.

Parameters:

used - The boolean value to set the acmUsed flag.

isAcmUsed

public abstract boolean isAcmUsed()

Gets the status of the acmUsed flag.

Returns:

True if the flag acmUsed is set. Returns false otherwise

isAccessAllowed

public abstract int isAccessAllowed(SnmpPDU pdu,
                                    SnmpOID oid)

This method processess the isAccessAllowed request. The isAccessAllowed performs the access verifications according to the procedure specified by the particular ACCESS CONTROL MODEL. The SnmpPDU which is the input parameter, has all the data elements required for access verifications. The SnmpOID parameter is the Object Identifier for which the access verifications are to be performed. The isAccessAllowed returns an intger value which is a success or an errorIndication.

Parameters:

pdu - The SnmpPDU which has all the parameters required for processing the isAccessAllowed.(context,securityName,securityModel etc.)

oid - The SnmpOID. It has the Object Identifier for which the access verifications are to be performed.

Returns:

an integer value.

setDBOperations

protected void setDBOperations(com.adventnet.snmp.snmp2.DatabaseOperations dbOps)

setV3DatabaseFlag

protected void setV3DatabaseFlag(boolean dbFlag)
