Thanks for the reply c and I understand your confusion. It's not easy to explain without giving the entire code and having a go at it and there's a lot more code than that.

The whole jist of it is I'm running snmp commands on routers on our network. So, I define a session for a router by it's ip and then I run the snmp commands. (On the same $session that was defined.) So, if I have 4 snmp commands to run on that same ip, I run them in a loop using the same SNMP session that was defined. Well, when I get a response that is an error like not being able to resolve the name or some kind of other error, the error never seems to clear. Even though I set $response as undef, the get_request() seems to not reset for that particular ip on the next go around, until I kill the script and re-run it.

Thanks again for your reply.
