Hi!

bsnmpd running with mibII module opens local socket /var/run/snmpd.sock
mentioned in snmp_mibII(3) manual page:

     The mibII module opens a socket that is used to execute all network
     related ioctl(2) functions.  This socket is globally available under the
     name mib_netsock.

How do I use the socket? I hope to be able to call mib_find_if_sys() function
from another process using the socket. Is there a documentation for this?
