No. The fixed elements of an SNMPv1 trap are everything up to "uptime". The triplet that follows ([OID TYPE VALUE]) is how you specify an extra value. (or several such triplets if you need several extra values). > Searching I found only tha enterprise-oid is always 6...and the others one? No - the enterprise OID is an OID - not a number. It identifies the organisation who defined this trap. The generic-trap will always be 6 (for enterprise-defined traps) The specific-trap will indicate which of the various traps defined by that organisation this is. Please see any book on SNMP for more details. > I dont want to transmit any MIB, only a string or a value Tough - SNMP doesn't work that way. SNMP always works with "varbinds" - a name-value pair. (Or strictly speaking, a name-type-value triplet). You can't simply report a value of "42" or "yes" You always have to include an indication of what this value means - "number of interruptions in the last hour = 42" or "is Dave getting increasingly crabby = yes" Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sponsored by: SourceForge.net Community Choice Awards: VOTE NOW!
