I need to make an agent in SNMP4J, but the documentation on how to get started is pretty poor. Does anyone have any experience with SNMP4J and could give me an idea on how to get started? Thanks.

You can download the source code for SNMP4JAgent here:

http://www.snmp4j.org/html/download.html

The source code includes a sample agent -- look in the org.snmp4j.agent.example package for all of the related classes.

http://www.snmp4j.org/agent/doc/org/snmp4j/agent/example/SampleAgent.html

One way of getting started would be to create an agent using the example code and then modify it to suit your needs. The JavaDoc describing each of the classes is a bit terse, but it's complete.
