Re: Persisting MIB table

2005-05-25 Thread Steve S. Law
Thanks for the direction. Some high-level questions: (1)Using those APIs to implement persistence means that data is saved to some .conf file only once and only when the sub-agent is normally terminated? (2)When the sub-agent is restarted, what happens to data in the saved file? Is it deleted, t

Hello All, I am having no luck searching for what I need. I appologize if this has been covered before. I have many devices sending SNMP traps to a Solaris 8 system running Ciscoworks. Most of the devices can only send traps to one IP address. I now have need of 4 devices to get copies of t

Authentification Traps

Can someone lend some insight into our Authentification Trap issue? We have a device that does not allow us to disable authentification traps. The trap receiver is set to ignor the abundant authentification traps sent. However, we would like to have this function disabled so that the messages are

2005-05-25 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]
When setting the non-repeater value to 1 and up, it seemed to avoid the problem. Also, changing the max-repeater to 1. Is changing these values to make a bulkwalk work an acceptable practice? If it is acceptible, any reason why this makes sense would be much appreciated. Thanks again. -

Re: Implied index in table

Is there also a function that performs the opposite, i.e. given a list of index variables and values, construct the index part of the OID ? If the "implied" information is there, I can write a function for it myself, but if it's already there, I don't have to do that... Best regards, Peter. On

Sending a v1 trap with type=inform instead of type=0 fixed it from rewriting 0 to a 6 (actually further trying showed I could put anything other than type=specific for that field to get the results to match what was originally logged). Anyone explain why it changes type=0 to type=6 since that is w

Dynamic way of registring trap destination

2005-05-25 Thread Sasikumar Bodathula
Hi, We have a requirement for SNMP managers to register with the Agent to receive the traps. We know in NetSNMP we have to specify the trap destination to the attribute ‘trap2sink’ in ‘snmpd.conf’. In this approach before starting the snmpd we have to know all the trap destinations, which is not
