Re: Version 5.4.2.1 snmp v3 traps with snmptrapd

You are close...(snmpEngineID.0 should start with a lower case 's')

snmpget -u edgewater -l authNoPriv -A edgewater 10.10.50.158 snmpEngineID.0

if it doesn't like this you can add the '-M<mib directory> -mALL' option.  The actual OID value would be 1.3.6.1.6.3.10.2.1.1.0

You should actually get the same information as the oldEngineID below, but you don't want to have to do this since the proper way is to just send an SNMP request.

This information also shows up in a 'report PDU' whenever you send a request with an improper user or authentication or privacy parameter.

Please remember to cc the net-user listserv so that others may benefit from our dialogue!
