NAME
       multiplexer - Splits mode requests into calls to different handlers.

   Functions
       netsnmp_mib_handler * netsnmp_get_multiplexer_handler
	   (netsnmp_mib_handler_methods *req)
	   returns a multiplixer handler given a netsnmp_mib_handler_methods
	   structure of subhandlers.
       int netsnmp_multiplexer_helper_handler (netsnmp_mib_handler *handler,
	   netsnmp_handler_registration *reginfo, netsnmp_agent_request_info
	   *reqinfo, netsnmp_request_info *requests)
	   implements the multiplexer helper

Detailed Description
       Splits mode requests into calls to different handlers.

       The multiplexer helper lets you split the calling chain depending on
       the calling mode (get vs getnext vs set). Useful if you want different
       routines to handle different aspects of SNMP requests, which is very
       common for GET vs SET type actions.

       Functionally:

       1.  GET requests call the get_method

       2.  GETNEXT requests call the getnext_method, or if not present, the
	   get_method.

       3.  GETBULK requests call the getbulk_method, or if not present, the
	   getnext_method, or if even that isn't present the get_method.

       4.  SET requests call the set_method, or if not present return a
	   SNMP_ERR_NOTWRITABLE error.
