NAME
       utility_handlers - Simplify request processing A group of handlers intended to simplify certain
       aspects of processing a request for a MIB object.



   Modules
       bulk_to_next
           Convert GETBULK requests into GETNEXT requests for the handler.


       cache_handler
           Maintains a cache of data for use by lower level handlers.


       debug
           Print out debugging information about the handler chain being called.

           At the end of a series of requests, call another handler hook.


       multiplexer
           Splits mode requests into calls to different handlers.


       read_only
           Make your handler read_only automatically The only purpose of this handler is to return an
           appropriate error for any requests passed to it in a SET mode.


       row_merge
           Calls sub handlers with request for one row at a time.

       stash_to_next
           Convert GET_STASH requests into GETNEXT requests for the handler.



Detailed Description
       Simplify request processing A group of handlers intended to simplify certain aspects of processing a
       request for a MIB object.

       These helpers do not implement any MIB objects themselves. Rather they handle specific generic
       situations, either returning an error, or passing a (possibly simpler) request down to lower level
       handlers.
