Abstract
An example network management device includes a network management module, and a reconstruction module. The network management module is configured to generate a data retrieval command to direct a managed device to retrieve a set of management variables stored within a database within the managed network device and send the data retrieval command to the managed device. The reconstruction module is configured to receive a plurality of partial responses generated by a deconstruction module of the managed device in response to receiving the data retrieval command and determining that the set of management variables does not fit in a single response, and combine the received plurality of partial responses into the requested set of management variables, wherein each of the plurality of partial responses is received as a separate message from the managed network device and includes a different portion of the requested set of management variables.
