In my case at least, having one context per session would lead to a cleaner implementation as well as reduce communication overhead and (nominally) increase security. I seem to be missing the reasoning that makes the multiple passing of context strings important. Thanks in advance.

Because context is really opaque data to AgentX, session_id is conceptually "below" the protocol itself and is related to transport details only, and this more general mechanism seemed to suit everyone better than a model of 1 context per session. You're really suggesting we use a numeric context_id, and you're thinking of "overloading" session_id because it's there. Is that right? >In my case at least, having one context per session would lead to a cleaner >implementation as well as reduce communication overhead and (nominally) >increase security. I seem to be missing the reasoning that makes the >multiple passing of context strings important. We didn't know what would happen with context vis a vis SNMPv3, etc. Different implementations have different mechanisms and uses of "context" within subagents. So we just left what are essentially placeholders, without any format, within the PDUs for context indication. You could pass binary ids and have both ends map them if you wish.

Is that right? That's correct. Now that I think about it again, this would have been a misuse of the session ID. > Different implementations have different mechanisms and uses of "context" > within subagents. > > So we just left what are essentially placeholders, without any format, > within the PDUs for context indication. > > You could pass binary ids and have both ends map them if you wish. Good enough and silly me for not thinking of this myself.
