snmpinform -v [2c|3]
[COMMON OPTIONS] uptime trap-oid [OID TYPE VALUE]...
DESCRIPTION
snmptrap
is an SNMP application that uses the SNMP TRAP operation to send
information to a network manager. One or more object identifiers
(OIDs) can be given as arguments on the command line. A type and a
value must accompany each object identifier. Each variable name is
given in the format specified in
variables(5).
When invoked as
snmpinform,
or when
-Ci
is added to the command line flags of snmptrap, it sends an
INFORM-PDU, expecting a response from the trap receiver,
retransmitting if required. Otherwise it sends an TRAP-PDU or
TRAP2-PDU.
If any of the required version 1 parameters,
enterprise-oid,
agent,
and
uptime
are specified as empty, it defaults to
1.3.6.1.4.1.3.1.1 (enterprises.cmu.1.1),
hostname,
and
host-uptime
respectively.
The
TYPE
is a single character, one of:
i
INTEGER
u
UNSIGNED
c
COUNTER32
s
STRING
x
HEX STRING
d
DECIMAL STRING
n
NULLOBJ
o
OBJID
t
TIMETICKS
a
IPADDRESS
b
BITS
which are handled in the same way as the
snmpset
command.
For example:
snmptrap -v 1 -c public manager enterprises.spider test-hub 3 0 '' interfaces.iftable.ifentry.ifindex.1 i 1
will send a generic linkUp trap to manager, for interface 1.
OPTIONS
snmptrap
takes the common options described in the
snmpcmd(1)
manual page in
addition to the
-Ci
option described above.
