Initiate the discovery process with the manager identified by `TargetName` using the notification `Notification`.

This function is synchronous, which means that it will return when the discovery process has been completed or failed.

The `DiscoHandler` module is used during the discovery process. See discovery handler for more info.

The `ExtraInfo` argument is passed on to the callback functions of the `DiscoHandler`.

> #### Note

> If we are not at security-level `noAuthNoPriv`, this could be complicated, since the agent will then continue with stage 2, before which the usm-related updates must be done.

> #### Note

> The default discovery handler will require additional actions by the caller and the discovery will not work if the security-level is higher then `noAuthNoPriv`.

Load `Mibs` into an agent. If the agent cannot load all MIBs (the default value of the `Force` argument is `false`), it will indicate where loading was aborted. The `MibName` is the name of the Mib, including the path to where the compiled mib is found. For example,

If `Force = true` then the agent will continue attempting to load each mib even after failing to load a previous mib. Use with care.

`Mod` is a module implementing the `snmpa_notification_filter` behaviour.

`Data` will be passed on to the filter when calling the functions of the behaviour.

Registers a sub-agent under a sub-tree of another agent.

It is easy to make mistakes when registering sub-agents and this activity should be done carefully. For example, a strange behaviour would result from the following configuration:

    snmp_agent:register_subagent(MAPid,[1,2,3,4],SA1),
    snmp_agent:register_subagent(SA1,[1,2,3], SA2).

`SA2` will not get requests starting with object identifier `[1,2,3]` since `SA1` does not.

Send the notification `Notification` to the management targets defined for notify-name (`name`) in the `snmpNotifyTable` in SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB from the specified `context`.

If no `name` is specified (or if it is `""`), the notification is sent to all management targets.

If no `context` is specified, the default context, `""`, is used.

The send option `receiver` specifies where information about delivery of Inform-Requests should be sent. The agent sends Inform-Requests and waits for acknowledgments from the management targets. The `receiver` can have three values:

- `no_receiver` - No information is delivered.

- `notification_delivery_info/0` - The information is delivered via a function call according to this data.

- `{tag(), tag_receiver()}` - The information is delivered either via messages or via a function call according to the value of `tag_receiver()`.

  Delivery is done differently depending on the value of `tag_receiver()`:

  - `pid() | registered_name()` - The info will be delivered in the following messages:

    - `{snmp_targets, tag(), Addresses}`

      This informs the user which target addresses the notification was sent to.

    - `{snmp_notification, tag(), {got_response, Address}}`

      This informs the user that this target address acknowledged the notification.

    - `{snmp_notification, tag(), {no_response, Address}}`

      This informs the user that this target address did not acknowledge the notification.

    The notification is sent as an Inform-Request to each target address in `Addresses` and if there are no targets for which an Inform-Request is sent, `Addresses` is the empty list `[]`.

    The `tag_receiver()` will first be sent the `snmp_targets` message, and then for each address in `Addresses` list, one of the two `snmp_notification` messages.

  - `{Mod, Func, Args}` - The info will be delivered via the function call:

    `Mod:Func([Msg | Args])`

    where `Msg` has the same content and purpose as the messages descrived above.

The 'process oid' "tag" that can be provided with the variable name / oids is intended to be used for oid post processing. The value '`keep`', which is the default, leaves the oid as is. The value '`truncate`', will cause the oid to be "truncated". That is, any trailing ".0" will be removed.

> #### Note

> There is a way to exclude a varbind from the notification. In the normal `varbinds` list, providing the special value `'$ignore-oid'` (instead of a normal value) will exclude this varbind from the notification.

> A define for this has been added to the `snmp_types.hrl` include file, `NOTIFICATION_IGNORE_VB_VALUE`.

> #### Note

> The `extra` info is not normally interpreted by the agent, instead it is passed through to the net-if process. It is up to the implementor of that process to make use of this data.

> The version of net-if provided by this application makes no use of this data, with one exception: Any tuple containing the atom `snmpa_default_notification_extra_info` may be used by the agent and is therefore reserved.

> See the net-if incoming messages for sending a trap and notification for more info.

                                   LocalEngineID :: snmp_framework_mib:engine_id().

Sends the notification `Notification` to the management targets defined for `NotifyName` in the `snmpNotifyTable` in SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB from the specified context.

If no `NotifyName` is specified (or if it is `""`), the notification is sent to all management targets (`Addresses` below).

If no `ContextName` is specified, the default `""` context is used.

The parameter `Receiver` specifies where information about delivery of Inform-Requests should be sent. The agent sends Inform-Requests and waits for acknowledgments from the managers. `Receiver` can have three values:

- `no_receiver` - No information is delivered.
- `notification_delivery_info/0` - The information is delivered via a function call according to this data.
- `{Tag, Recv}` - The information is delivered either via messages or via a function call according to the value of `Recv`.

If `Receiver` has the value `{Tag, Recv}`, the delivery is done according to `Recv`:

- `pid() | atom()` - The info will be delivered in the following messages:

  - `{snmp_targets, Tag, Addresses}`

    This inform the user which target addresses the notification was sent to.

  - `{snmp_notification, Tag, {got_response, Address}}`

    This informs the user that this target address acknowledged the notification.

  - `{snmp_notification, Tag, {no_response, Address}}`

    This informs the user that this target address did not acknowledge notification.

  The notification is sent as an Inform-Request to each target address in `Addresses` and if there are no targets for which an Inform-Request is sent, `Addresses` is the empty list `[]`.

  The `receiver` will first be sent the `snmp_targets` message, and then for each address in `Addresses` list, one of the two `snmp_notification` messages.

- `{Mod, Func, Args}` - The info will be delivered via the function call:

  `Mod:Func([Msg | Args])`

  where `Msg` has the same content and purpose as the messages descrived above.

`Address` is a management target address and `Addresses` is a list of management target addresses. They are defined as followes:

            Addresses  = [address()]
            Address    = address()
            address()  = v1_address() | v3_address()
            v1_address() = {TDomain, TAddress}
            v3_address() = {{TDomain, TAddress}, V3MsgData}
            TDomain    = tdoamin()
            TAddress   = taddress()
            tdomain()  = The oid of snmpUDPDomain
                         This is the only supported transport domain.
            taddress() = [A1, A2, A3, A4, P1, P3]
                         The 4 first bytes makes up the IP-address and the last 2,
                         the UDP-port number.
            V3MsgData  = v3_msg_data()
            v3_msg_data() = term()

If `Receiver` is a `notification_delivery_info/0` record, then the information about the notification delivery will be delivered to the `receiver` via the callback functions defined by the `snmpa_notification_delivery_info_receiver` behaviour according to the content of the `notification_delivery_info/0` record.

The optional argument `Varbinds` defines values for the objects in the notification. If no value is given for an object, the `Agent` performs a get-operation to retrieve the value.

`Varbinds` is a list of `Varbind`, where each `Varbind` is one of:

- `{Variable, Value}`, where `Variable` is the symbolic name of a scalar variable referred to in the notification specification.
- `{Column, RowIndex, Value}`, where `Column` is the symbolic name of a column variable. `RowIndex` is a list of indices for the specified element. If this is the case, the OBJECT IDENTIFIER sent in the notification is the `RowIndex` appended to the OBJECT IDENTIFIER for the table column. This is the OBJECT IDENTIFIER which specifies the element.
- `{OID, Value}`, where `OID` is the OBJECT IDENTIFIER for an instance of an object, scalar variable, or column variable.

For example, to specify that `sysLocation` should have the value `"upstairs"` in the notification, we could use one of:

- `{sysLocation, "upstairs"}` or
- `{[1,3,6,1,2,1,1,6,0], "upstairs"}` or
- `{?sysLocation_instance, "upstairs"}` (provided that the generated `.hrl` file is included)

If a variable in the notification is a table element, the `RowIndex` for the element must be given in the `Varbinds` list. In this case, the OBJECT IDENTIFIER sent in the notification is the OBJECT IDENTIFIER that identifies this element. This OBJECT IDENTIFIER could be used in a get operation later.

This function is asynchronous, and does not return any information. If an error occurs, `user_err/2` of the error report module is called and the notification is discarded.

> #### Note

> Note that the use of the LocalEngineID argument is only intended for special cases, if the agent is to "emulate" multiple EngineIDs! By default, the agent uses the value of `SnmpEngineID` (see SNMP-FRAMEWORK-MIB).

`ExtraInfo` is not normally used in any way by the agent. It is intended to be passed along to the net-if process, which is a component that a user can implement themself. The users own net-if may then make use of ExtraInfo. The net-if provided with this application does not process ExtraInfo.

There is one exception. Any tuple containing the atom `snmpa_default_notification_extra_info` will, in this context, be considered belonging to this application, and may be processed by the agent.
