Help: how I try my trap

[michael liu]

Hi, every one,

 

I just wrote a code to test snmp program according to an example program(which is example.c and example.h in net-5.1.4).

 

and now, everything is ok, I can set, get, bulk, but I don't know how to trap.

 

In my code, I used send_easy_trap(SNMP_TRAP_ENTERPREISES, 99) ,which same is the example.c code, but how do I know this trap is sent or received?

 

or how can I test this trap is actived?

 

After searching the website, I think I can use *snmpset* to active a trap: snmpset -c public localhost NET-MY-MIB::netSnmpExampleTrap.0 int 1

and then showed I can set the value to 1 of netSnmpExampleTrap, but how do I know the manager receive this trap?

 

BTW, do I need add *trapsink localhost public* in snmpd.conf ?

 

 

 

 

My MIB define:

netSnmpExamples OBJECT IDENTIFIER is 1.3.6.1.4.1.8888.2.1
