RE: How to send traps from snmpd daemon

Hi,

 

Just follow the instructions from:

 

http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/TUT:Configuring_snmptrapd

 

and little more tips:

 

- Create one file named as "TRAP-TEST-MIB.txt" in
/usr/local/share/snmp/mibs/ with below entries

 

TRAP-TEST-MIB DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN

            IMPORTS ucdExperimental FROM UCD-SNMP-MIB;

 

demotraps OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { ucdExperimental 990 }

 

demo-trap TRAP-TYPE

            STATUS current

            ENTERPRISE demotraps

            VARIABLES { sysLocation }

            DESCRIPTION "This is just a demo"

            ::= 17

END

 

- Make sure that UCD-SNMP-MIB.txt is present in that path.

 

- issue the below command to check the effect of above change for TRAP

  $ snmptrap -v 1 -c public host TRAP-TEST-MIB::demotraps "" 6 17 ""
SNMPv2-MIB::sysLocation.0 s "Just here"

 

The above example creates SNMPv1 TRAP.

 

- Modify the /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf for below entries to define trap sink

 # send v1 traps

 trapsink        localhost  public

 # also send v2 traps

 trap2sink       localhost  public

 # send traps on authentication failures

 authtrapenable  1

 

 

-- To receive the trap use command 

$snmptrapd -P
