Regarding the Bugzilla#5147

Issue

• The problem of Bugzilla#514703 occurred on a system.

• Could you please answer the following questions?

  1) Is there a method of avoiding this problem without applying Errata(http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2010-0253.html)?
  If there is a workaround, could you tell the workaround and the reason that can be avoided?

  2) Could you tell the restoration method when this problem occurs?
  Example:
  - Start snmpd.
  - Reboot the system.

  3) What is the counter of /proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/snmp6? Is it the number of packets that snmpd sent or received? Or, is it the number of packets that are sent or received as one system?

  4) I think that this problem occurs when the counter of /proc/net/snmp and /proc/net/snmp6 exceeds 4,294,967,296. Is there a method of preventing those counters from exceeding 4,294,967,296? Moreover, is there a method of decreasing the number of those counters?
