In the "answer your own questions" department, I was able to get V3 traps working between my 5.4.1 snmpd agent and 5.5 snmptrapd receiver.
I had a host of problems related to manipulating both ends simultaneously. Once I focused on convincing snmptrapd to log local V3 traps with help from the tutorial: http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/TUT:Configuring_snmptrapd_to_rece ive_SNMPv3_notifications things became somewhat easier. The hardest (and most crucial part) was determining the agent's automatically generated Engine ID. I noticed that the Engine ID gets written to the agent's persistent store in /var/net-snmp/snmpd.conf and ended up copying that to the recipient's configuration. Anyway, here are my more or less working configuration files: [snmptrapd.conf] logOption f C:/log/snmptrapd.log createUser -e 0x80001F88803ff10c834c0569cc testtrap MD5 testpassword authUser log testtrap [snmpd.conf] trapcommunity public authtrapenable 1 createUser testtrap rouser testtrap trapsess -v 3 -u testtrap -l authNoPriv -a MD5 -A ceppassword 192.168.1.129 Ron The information contained in this message may be privileged and confidential and protected from disclosure.
