Arthur, this is from a script that I use to generate the real rearm trap
for data collection
for testing purposes. You should be able to model yours on this. In this
case,
CCINOC_03 is the netview server, and ATLNOCATT is the node the event is
about.
Note that this is the netview enterprise, and the first variable is the
'source' as in
N or A, and the second variable ($2) is treated as the source node. I
figured this
out from the man page for snmptrap. You will need continuation characters,
of course.
/usr/OV/bin/snmptrap CCINOC_03 .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3 ATLNOCATT 6 58720264
1
.1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3.1.1.2 Integer 14
.1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3.1.1.3 OctetString ATLNOCATT
.1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3.1.1.4 OctetString "avgBusy5 0 threshold rearmed
(=29); 29. Sampled hig"
.1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3.1.1.5 OctetString ".1.3.6.1.4.1.9.2.1.5"
.1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3.1.1.6 OctetString "0"
There is an outside chance that you might have trouble with the specific
number you have
chosen. It used to be documented (in V3) that specific trap ids 1000-1999
are reserved
for your use. I don't know if that means it mishandles other numbers.
Cordially,

Subject: [NV-L] snmptrap command
Hello,
I am having trouble using the snmptrap command on Netview 5.1.2 on Solaris
2.6.
I have configured a test trap under the netview enterprise
1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3
generic 6 and specific 60000001.
The command I am using is:
snmptrap unwnnvw01 .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.3 10.10.10.10 6 60000001 0.
This appears to send a trap but nothing is recieved by trapd.log
If I remove the preceeding . from the enterprise id it sends a trap with no
fornat in the trapd.conf.
It preceeds the enterprise ID with a
.mgmnt.mib2.system.sysuptime.6.1.4.1.2.6.3. Rather confusing.
I also can not find any documnentation on exactly what and how the variable
work, hoe for example should I send the event description in my command, I
can send an octetstring but its not an event description.
Can any one out there please explain to me how traps work.
thankyou Arthur
