Getting "no such variable name in this MIB" error while running "snmpset"

[YorkZ]

Steps to reproduce the problem

1. With lldpd version: Git commit 6936221, Net SNMP version: 5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu3.3
2. OS: Ubuntu 14.04.6, Net SNMP Version: 5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu3.3
3. With the following lines in /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf:

master agentx
rocommunity public
rwcommunity private

4. As expected, running:

snmpget -c public -v 1 localhost LLDP-MIB::lldpMessageTxInterval.0

gives:

LLDP-MIB::lldpMessageTxInterval.0 = INTEGER: 10 seconds

5. Running:

snmpset -c private -v 1 localhost LLDP-MIB::lldpMessageTxInterval.0 i 5

gives the error:

Error in packet.
Reason: (noSuchName) There is no such variable name in this MIB.
Failed object: LLDP-MIB::lldpMessageTxInterval.0

lldpd does not support changing configuration with snmpset.

Thank you very much @vincentbernat for the prompt reply, could you suggest some workaround?

[vincentbernat]

No workaround. Someone has to implement the feature if needed. You can change the value using "lldpcli" locally.
