* [SNMP] management VRF SNMP support
This commit adds SNMP support for Management VRF using l3mdev.
The patch included provides VRF support, there is no single
"listendevice" configuration, rather multiple agentaddress
config options can each have their own "interface" to bind to
using "ip%interface". The snmpd.conf file is accordingly
generated using the snmp.yml file and redis database info.
Adding below the comments of SNMP patch 1376
--------------------------------------------
Since the Linux kernel added support for Virtual Routing
and Forwarding (VRF) in version 4.3
(Note: these won't compile on non-linux platforms)
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/vrf.txt
Linux users could not use snmpd in its current form to
bind specific listening IP addresses to specific VRF
devices. A simplified description of a VRF inteface
is an interface that is a master (a container of sorts)
that collects a set of physicalinterfaces to form a
routing table.
This set of two patches (one for V5-7-patches and one
for V5-8-patches branches) is almost identical to patch
single "listendevice" configuration. Rather, multiple
agentAddress config options can each have their own
"interface" to bind to using the <ip>%<interface>
syntax.</interface></ip>
