What is the difference between SNMP4J-SMI and SNMP4J-SMI-PRO?
The differences between the two APIs are
- the license model
- the features
License Model
The SNMP4J-SMI license is an user license intended for personal use for individuals (not for companies). Although the 1.x license covers also the usage for comany employees, this will be changed with the 2.0 release.
The SNMP4J-SMI-PRO license is a development site license for all employess at a specific company site (= postal address).
For both licenses, there are no runtime fees.
Features
SNMP4J-SMI is designed for easy integration into SNMP4J and provides basic OID to object name and variable value to human readable string conversion based on (runtime) MIB information.
SNMP4J-SMI-PRO includes all features of SNMP4J-SMI plus full access to all MIB information, including description, object syntax, default values, etc.
