Here is a set of SNMP applications written on top of pysnmp library. Some of these tools mimic their famous Net-SNMP counterparts, while the rest are designed to ease integration with other Python applications.
- Complete SNMPv1/v2c and SNMPv3 support
- Interface compatible (almost) with Net-SNMP's snmp* tools.
- SNMPv3 USM supports MD5/SHA/SHA224/SHA256/SHA384/SHA512 auth and DES/3DES/AES128/AES192/AES256 privacy crypto algorithms
- Automatically downloads required MIBs from the Internet
- Runs over IPv4 and/or IPv6 transports
- Cross-platform: works on Linux, Windows and OS X.
- 100% Python, works with Python 2.4 up to Python 3.6
The pysnmp-apps package is distributed under terms and conditions of 2-clause BSD license. Source code is freely available as a Github repo.
Download pysnmp-apps from PyPI or just run:
$ pip install pysnmp-appsThe most of pysnmp command-line tools could be run in a similar way as their Net-SNMP counterparts. For example:
$ snmpbulkwalk.py -v3 -u usr-md5-des -l authPriv -A authkey1 -X privkey1 demo.snmplabs.com system

You can play with different security protocols against the publicly available SNMP agent like this one @snmplabs.com.
If something does not work as expected, try browsing PySNMP mailing list archives or post your question to Stack Overflow.
I'm interested in bug reports, fixes, suggestions and improvements. Your pull requests are very welcome!
