That is explaining the syntax of the command - what options are available and what bits can go where. It's not intended as a literal string to be placed in the snmptrapd.conf file as is. > I'm just really confused on how to put it all together and make it actually > work. The simplest form would probably be: traphandle default /usr/local/bin/traptoemail dno...@multi-ad.com That should send an email message to "dno...@multi-ad.com" for every trap that arrives, regardless of what that trap actually represents. The "TRAPOID" token is an alternative to "default", used for selecting special handling for particular traps. The -f and -s options are used to configure exactly how email should be sent. But to start with, I'd suggest you try with the simple example above. > Here is my snmptrapd.conf file: > > > authCommunity log,execute,net public That's good. > traphandle TRAPOID|default /usr/local/bin/traptoemail [-f FROM] [-s > SMTPSERVER]b ADDRESSES See above I'd then delete the rest of the file - all of the directives are missing essential parameters. Don't worry about them yet - start with *just* the two lines listed above, and get that working first. Then you can start experimenting with other formats, and additional trap handles.
