Of course it is possible, otherwise there would not be an snmptrapd app :-)

But what do you mean when you talk about an API?

What you do need to do is to open a session, and add snmp_input as a
callback to it, and then you can trim the rest of snmptrapd away, and do
what ever you want to do inside snmp_input.

SNMP Trap Receiver

2016-07-25 Thread Krishnaraj 

Dear Coders,

I am working on a SNMP manager application in linux. I could understand 
the mechanism of GET, SET requests from the sample apps. However the 
mechanism of TRAP receiver is quite complex. I unable to understand it 
and could not find much references on its working. My idea is to use 
some API to build my own trap receiver rather than using snmptrapd. Is 
that really possible ? Will you guys be able to help me on this. If API 
is not available, whether somebody could brief me the necessary steps so 
that I could start digging myself towards the implementation.
