Download PySNMP
===============
.. toctree::
:maxdepth: 2
The PySNMP software is provided under terms and conditions of BSD-style
license, and can be freely downloaded from Source Forge
`download servers <http://sourceforge.net/projects/pysnmp/files/>`_ or
`PyPI <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pysnmp/>`_.
Please, note that there are frequently release candidate versions (marked rc)
also available for download. These are potentially less stable in terms of
implementation and public interfaces. However they are first to contain
fixes to the issues, discovered in latest stable branch.
But the simplest way to obtain PySNMP is to run:
.. code-block:: bash
$ easy_install pysnmp
or
.. code-block:: bash
$ pip install pysnmp
Those Python package managers will download PySNMP along with all its
dependencies and install them all on your system.
In case you do not have the easy_install command on your system but still
would like to use the on-line package installation method, please install
`setuptools <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools>`_ package by
downloading and running `ez_setup.pz <https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py>`_ bootstrap:
.. code-block:: bash
# wget https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py
# python ez_setup.py
In case you are installing PySNMP on an off-line system, the following
packages need to be downloaded and installed for PySNMP to become
operational:
* `PyASN1 <http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pyasn1/>`_,
used for handling ASN.1 objects
* `PySNMP <http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pysnmp/>`_,
SNMP engine implementation
Optional, but recommended:
* `PyCrypto <http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pycrypto/>`_,
used by SNMPv3 crypto features (Windows users need
`precompiled version <http://www.voidspace.org.uk/python/modules.shtml>`_)
* `PySMI <http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pysmi/>`_ for automatic
MIB download and compilation. That helps visualizing more SNMP objects
* `Ply <http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/ply/>`_, parser generator
required by PySMI
The installation procedure for all the above packages is as follows
(on UNIX-based systems):
.. code-block:: bash
$ tar zxf package-X.X.X.tar.gz
$ cd package-X.X.X
# python setup.py install
# cd ..
# rm -rf package-X.X.X
In case of any issues, please `let us know <http://pysnmp.sourceforge.net/contact.html>`_ so we could try to help out.
