  W3C WD: SMUX Protocol Specification
SMUX is a session management protocol separating the underlying transport from the upper level application protocols.
A SMUX header with the long_length bit set must use the 32 bits following the SMUX header (the long_fragment_size field) for the value of the fragment_size field, for whatever purpose the fragment_size field is being used for.
One of the major design goals of SMUX is to allow callbacks to objects in the process that initiated the transport TCP connection without requiring additional TCP connections (with the overhead in both machine resources and time that this would cause, or the problems with TCP connection establishment through firewalls).

Obviously, the SMUX peer which employs the cache-ahead model acts as a "firewall" for those user-processes which actually implement the managed objects in the given MIB module.
When either the SNMP agent or the SMUX peer wishes to release the SMUX association, the ClosePDU is issued, the connection is closed, and all subtree registrations for that association are released.
As such, if a SMUX peer wishes to register a subtree at a priority which is already taken, the SNMP agent repeatedly increments the integer value until an unused priority is found.

 SMUX peers
The SMUX peer is said to be exporting a MIB module containing those objects and is responsible for SNMP operations on all objects within that MIB module.
In the role of an SMUX peer, the GateD process acts on the requests from the agent and sends responses to the agent.
For an agent to be aware of an SMUX peer and to know what MIB modules the peer is exporting, an SMUX peer, when it starts running, must register with the local SNMP agent and export all the MIB modules it plans to support.

 W3C WD: SMUX Protocol Specification
Therefore, for SMUX to have reasonably low overhead credits should be handed out in some significant multiple (4 or more times larger) than the ~3000 bytes represented by two packets on an ether net.
One of the major design goals of SMUX is to allow callbacks to objects in the process that initiated the transport connection without requiring a second transport connections (with the overhead in both machine resources and time that this would cause).
We want to SMUX multiple protocols simultaneously over the same transport connection, so we need to know what protocol is in use with each session, so the demultipexor can hand the data to the right person.

 Setting Up the BEA SNMP Agent Integrator
Master agents that "speak" SMUX protocol to subagents are typically able to communicate only with SMUX-compliant subagents, and cannot coexist with non-SMUX SNMP agents running on the same host.
In its communication with SMUX subagents (and DPI master agents and monolithic SNMP agents), the BEA SNMP Agent Integrator acts as a proxy for the SNMP manager.
By default, a SMUX subagent automatically indicates the section of the OID tree for which it is responsible when it registers with the BEA SNMP Agent Integrator master agent.

 SMUX Peers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
The SMUX Peer, or SNMP Multiplexer Peer, is an "understudy" to the SNMP agent on the device.
When a SMUX request comes in the agent checks the configuration file to determine if there is a peer capable of responding to the query.
If so the agent passes on the request to the peer and awaits a return of information from the SMUX peer (mainly if the operation was successful or not).

 Performance Toolbox Version 2 and 3 Guide and Reference - SNMP Multiplex Interface
The remainder of this topic describes how SMUX is used by the xmservd daemon to expand the set of variables available from the SNMP agent.
As the structure is exported from xmservd through the SMUX interface it is converted to an MIB table.
Where the SPMI retrieves all statistics for one disk before proceeding to the next disk, SMUX traverses the structure by reading one statistic for all disks before proceeding to the next statistic.

The smux entry specifies configuration information for SMUX associations between the snmpd agent and SMUX peer clients.
Fields to the right of the minimum entry are optional, with the limitation that no fields to the left of a specified field are omitted.
In the case of an invalid smux entry, the snmpd agent logs an EXCEPTIONS message if logging is enabled and the snmpd command ignores that smux entry.

 Appendix E: HACMP for AIX and SNMP Utilities   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
SNMP can be extended through the use of the SNMP Multiplexing protocol (the SMUX protocol) to include enterprise-specific MIBs that contain information relating to a discrete environment or application.
A management agent (a SMUX peer daemon) retrieves and maintains information about the objects defined in its MIB, and passes this information on to a specialized network monitor or network management station.
The trapgend daemon is the SMUX peer agent provided with the NetView for AIX program that converts alertable errors to SNMP traps.

 Packaging your SMUX peer   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
Once you have finished testing your SMUX peer and are satisfied that it is of high quality, it is ready for shipment to customers.
A typical package would include a disk containing the device driver, the SMUX peer daemon (foosmuxd), and the MIB module (foosmuxd.my).
It is important to include your MIB module: it can be read in by many kinds of management software, such that the network management workstation can more effectively control your device.

 The Simple Times, Volume 4, Number 2, April, 1996
Section 3.1.4 of the SMUX specification (RFC 1227) says that the SNMP agent should process each varbind in an incoming request sequentially, and block when a SMUX peer is contacted.
Having briefly examined SMUX and gained an appreciation of some of the basic features (and problems) of extensible agents, we can step back slightly in time to 1989 and examine another early extensible agent protocol, the SNMP Distributed Protocol Interface (DPI) version 1.0, which was specified in 1991 as RFC 1228.
Again as with SMUX, the SNMP agent was responsible for the interface with the management application, while the subagents were responsible for different subtrees of managed objects.
