NAME
       bulk_to_next - Convert GETBULK requests into GETNEXT requests for the handler.



   Functions
       netsnmp_mib_handler * netsnmp_get_bulk_to_next_handler (void)
           returns a bulk_to_next handler that can be injected into a given handler chain.
       void netsnmp_bulk_to_next_fix_requests (netsnmp_request_info *requests)
           takes answered requests and decrements the repeat count and updates the requests to the next to-do todo
           do varbind in the list
       int netsnmp_bulk_to_next_helper (netsnmp_mib_handler *handler, netsnmp_handler_registration *reginfo,
           netsnmp_agent_request_info *reqinfo, netsnmp_request_info *requests)
       void netsnmp_init_bulk_to_next_helper (void)
           initializes the bulk_to_next helper which then registers a bulk_to_next handler as a run-time
           injectable handler for configuration file use.

Detailed Description
       Convert GETBULK requests into GETNEXT requests for the handler.

       The only purpose of this handler is to convert a GETBULK request to a GETNEXT request. It is inserted
       into handler chains where the handler has not set the HANDLER_CAN_GETBULK flag.
