This is where my knowledge of the Net-SNMP internals break down.
1/ I understand that you can write a sub-agent using Net-SNMP routines
and then build/run them as either a 'linked' in module or as an AgentX
sub-agent; but I don't know how that works.
2/ In my case, I have an AgentX library (that I wrote in multiple
languages)
that interacts with (connects to) the Net-SNMP master agent. Here whenever
I need to send a trap, I send Net-SNMP an 'agentx_Notify_PDU' and
it then sends the right thing to the targets as per snmpd.conf
I.e. my agentx_Notify_PDU that the master translated into either
SNMP v1/v3/v3 trap/inform.
Sorry, but someone else is going to have to tell you how this happens using
the Net-SNMP API.
