snmpd in HA environment

[Eugen]

Hi,   I would like to use the snmpd agent for the only purpose (for now) to sent traps to a Network Manager but in an HA (High Availability) environment. I would like to know if the snmpd agent has some built-in HA capabilities i.e. having two snmpd running on two different nodes – one active instance and the other one on stand-by mode. The both agents would be notified when an alarm occurs but only the active snmpd would map this error to a SNMP trap and would send it to the Network Manager. And when the active has a problem (e.g. the node is down) the stand-by instance would become active.   To support this kind of functionality the 2 agents should communicate together…   Has someone encountered the same issue?   Thanks, Eugen
