You can configure the SystemEDGE agent to limit the response size for the GetBulk request. If you limit the byte size of the GetBulk response message payload, it also limits the memory used by the SystemEDGE agent.
If the response message exceeds the limit, the SystemEDGE agent iterates to service the list of OIDs requested in the form of valid response messages. For example, to avoid the fragmentation of IP packet you can set the soft limit to 60000. As the maximum size of IP packet is 65535, it is still below the overflow limit.
To configure the agent to limit GetBulk response, add the bulk_read_response_soft_limit option in sysedge.cf as follows:
bulk_read_response_soft_limit <limit>
Here, limit specifies the number of bytes the response message must be limited to. It is an unsigned integer with default value 60000.
Note: This option applies for authentication failure traps for trap destinations set for SNMPv2c/SNMPv3 traps (configured in sysedge.cf and sysedgeV3.cf).
