sorry to hear about the surgery - I've recently resumed somewhat
active work on bsnmp and modules, so if you can upload your work to an
accessible repository, say svn.freebsd.org/user/harti I can take on
testing and preparing the code for import. btw, I was contacted some
time ago by Carlos Santos suggesting a set of patches adding IPV6
transport, unfortunatelly he hasn't replied to any of my last e-mails,
is this the same patchset we're talking about or a different one?

We already have BSNMP listed on the SoC project ideas page :) The
problem is we still need a developer to review and test the code
before it can be imported. :)

cheers,

P.S. Back to the thread topic - so the only problem the author is
facing with bsnmp is that it lacks support for LLDP, do I understand
correctly?
