Thanks.

Now my MIB declares a NOTIFICATION-TYPE:

* mpbcRMHTrapCritical NOTIFICATION-TYPE
        OBJECTS {
                        mpbcRMHAlarmNEID,
                        mpbcRMHAlarmSlot,
                        mpbcRMHAlarmModule,
                        mpbcRMHAlarmID,
                        mpbcRMHAlarmDescription,
                        mpbcRMHAlarmStartTime
                }
        STATUS              current
        DESCRIPTION         "Critical Trap alarm."
        ::= { mpbcRMHTrap 1 }
*

-------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't understand the OBJECTS part. Can we send the values of all these
objects in the trap details?

Presently, what I get in the details of the trap is:


*SNMPv3 Trap Pdu,  MsgId = 1446431974, MaxSize = 65507
Flags = Auth/noPriv, SecurityModel = USM
EngineId = [0x80001f88806f673b3b0b1f4da1], EngineBoots = 161, EngineTime =
3, UserName = [testrwauth]
ContextEngineId = [0x80001f88806f673b3b0b1f4da1], ContextName = []
Request Id = 1843318089, Error Status = 0 , Error Index = 0
Oid1 = sysUpTime.0 , Type = TimeTicks, Value = 48 hrs: 15 min: 02 sec
Oid2 = snmpModules.1.1.4.1.0 , Type = ObjectID, Value = mpbcRMH-TrapCritical
*

TIA,
S
