How to pull SNMP information from Windows commandline without installing software

  • 772

I would like to be able to quickly pull SNMP information via commandline such as device uptime. I noticed Net-SNMP's snmpget.exe can do this; but it looks like I need to install Net-SNMP first before I can use that executable.

Isn't there any way to make this executable portable? When I simply copy it to another machine and try to execute it, it complains that netsnmp.dll is missing. If I copy that file to the same folder, it still says the file is missing. I even tried to regsvr32 that dll, but I was unsuccessful.

Maybe there's a better way to get simple SNMP information from the Windows command line using royalty free/non-commercial software?

Edit: It looks like I may be able to answer my own question.

  1. Windows does not come with a default SNMP client, so you would have to install software. I recommend the Net-SNMP suite.
