	Or just pull the freakin' cable!

	Yeah, I had to say it...

	Alternatively, use IP aliasing and mess with a network that doesn't have anything connected to it, like (not tested):

$ ifconfig eth0:0 1172.16.1.27 netmask 255.255.255.0   # linkUp
$ ifconfig eth0:0 down                                 # linkDown
$ ifconfig eth0:0 up                                   # linkUp

	Then again, you could go to even *more* trouble...

	Or you could just use snmpcmd and have absolute control over the trap contents.  What's wrong with absolute control?

I'm all in favor of freedom and self-determination, so long as it never happens on my network.
