I have the following plan for handling traps, The user defined signals are sent to agent from a software running on on the hardware(the device I wish to moniter) and the SNMP agent should catch these signals and send traps
I am still not sure about how to implement the above idea. I had a look into receive() function in snmpd.c file and found that it receives incoming messages - it seems to receive signals like SIGINT, SEGUSR1 etc.,. This receive function has an infinite loop - now the question is is this the place to implement signal handers?? like let's say for example signal(SIGOWN, handleMyOwnSignals); where SIGOWN is an user defined signal and function "handleMyOwnSignals" receives signals and sends traps based on signal ID. Is there any flaw in the above approach?? I am yet to venture into implementing the above strategy. Please guide me - I am anxiously looking for replies ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Net-snmp-users mailing list Net-snmp-users@lists.sourceforge.net Please see the following page to unsubscribe or change other options: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-users
