This is a followup to Multiple Different Snmp Agents in Single JVM.  I had fixed the initial problem by implementing the following code in the SnmpAgent constructor.  I have three SNMP Agents that I need to start up in a single JVM due to a requirement on the software we are designing (thus the simulation manager product recommended in the last post will not work).  For purposes of this post I will call them XX1SnmpAgent, XX2SnmpAgent, XX3SnmpAgent.

Each agent is setup using a virtual IP address:
XX1SnmpAgent: 192.168.189.50
XX2SnmpAgent: 192.168.189.71
XX3SnmpAgent: 192.168.189.80

The first thing I did was to setup a new constructor which looks like the code below:

1. public XXXSnmpAgent(String[] args, String addr, String dir) {
         super(addr, 8001);
         // This takes care of the options
         this.agentOptions = new AgentParamOptions(args);
         AgentUtil.setAgentDir(dir);
         AgentUtil.setLoggingParameters(6, "." + File.separator + "logs" + File.separator + "xxx");
         XXXSnmpAgent.agentDir = dir;
         XXXSnmpAgent.ipAddress = addr;
          
         Thread th = new Thread(this);
         th.start();
   }

The next think was to setup the TrapListener as such:

1.         trapListener = SnmpAgentInitializer.getTrapListener();
           /* User code starts here */
           trapListener.setLocalAddress(ipAddress);
           trapListener.setAgentAddr(ipAddress);
           trapListener.setUsesSeperateSession(false);
           /* User code ends here */

However two issues that need to get fixed and am requesting help on:

• Traps come out from a single IP address, my guess is the last SNMP session intialized.  I have tried to set the setUsesSeperateSession to true in the above code, however then the SNMP agents stop responding to requests.
• Logs are output into a single log file after all agents have been initialized.

My guess is the two issues reside from the SnmpAgentToolkit's use of Static Classes and a Cache, but I really need to find away to fix those two things.
