Writing a custom trap handling daemon
Hi all. I have to write a custom SNMP trap handling service which will listen to traps fired by some devices and generate new traps to a specific target. So far, I have not found any example code about how this can be done. Does any of you know of any similar tutorials? Could somebody provide some sample code about how can this be done? Thank you very much. Stavros -- Beautiful is writing same markup. Internet Explorer 9 supports standards for HTML5, CSS3, SVG 1.1, ECMAScript5, and DOM L2 L3.

RE:SNMP Trap Handling
Hi
We can declare Asynchronous callback routine to be called while we create
netsnmp session. Check the code given below.
static netsnmp_session *
snmptrapd_add_session(netsnmp_transport *t)
{
netsnmp_session sess, *session = sess, *rc = NULL;
snmp_sess_init(session);
session-peername = SNMP_DEFAULT_PEERNAME; /* Original code had NULL here
*/
session-version = SNMP_DEFAULT_VERSION;
session-community_len = SNMP_DEFAULT_COMMUNITY_LEN;
session-retries = SNMP_DEFAULT_RETRIES;
session-timeout = SNMP_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT;
session-callback = snmp_trapd_input;-- This
is the trap handler which gets called.
session-callback_magic = (void *) t;
session-authenticator = NULL;
sess.isAuthoritative = SNMP_SESS_UNKNOWNAUTH;
rc = snmp_add(session, t, pre_parse, NULL);
}
Once you call this function, use the session returned to do all your trap
administration. For more info, please have a look at - snmptrapd_handlers.c
file under libnetsnmptrapd project files.
Cheers,
Sonu

Hi,
I was writing a program to convert SNMP traps to some proprietary trap format.
My requirement is to parse the SNMP trap PDU and get the trap and all variables
associated with the trap and store it in a structure and pass it to some
routine that will generate proprietary traps.
I looked into snmaptrapd.c file and could not make much from it. I don't know
where exactly the trap PDU is parsed and how the OID in trap is matched to
varibale name in MIB file. Can some one please point me how can I get sarted
with this? How to get an application call back when a trap is received and how
to match OID to actual name and extract variables from trap PDU
Thanks in advance,
Jayesh KM

The simplest approach is probably to start with snmptrapd,
and then write your own trap handler, using something like
'print_handler' (in snmptrapd_handlers.c) as a template.
Then tweak the main routine (in snmptrapd.c) to add a call
to 'netsnmp_add_global_traphandler', specifying your new
handler.That will then invoke your code whenever a
trap is received, passing it the decoded trap PDU.

Trap handling
Hi,
We have a requirementto support trap
handling in our project.
Requirement is whenever a trap is received a
function should be called which extracts the community string and performs some
operation.
With were able to do it with
scotty(opening a listener session and binding it with a callback function.
Please see the code below).
set session
[Tnm::snmp listener -port 162 -version SNMPv1 -transport udp -tags
{}]$sessionbind trap { set pdu "%V" set community
"%C"}
How can the same functionality be achieved
using net-snmp(a callback function should be called whenever a trap is
received).
I read about snmptrapd and snmptrapd.conf,
but I am not sure how to use it to achieve the above functionality.
Can anybody help me with this
problem?
Thanks in advance
Regards,Sushma
Re: Problem with trap handling
1) I created a MIB file
demotraps OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { ucdExperimental 990 }
demo-trap TRAP-TYPE
ENTERPRISE demotraps
::= 17
traphandle TRAP-TEST-MIB::demo-trap /home/nba/bin/traps demo-trap
I would *strongly* suggest that you define your MIBs using SMIv2
rather than SMIv1.
SMIv1 used a different approach to defining traps, so
TRAP-TEST-MIB::demo-trap is not strictly speaking an OID at all.
I'm not at all sure how snmptrapd would interpret this.
Try translating TRAP-TEST-MIB into SMIv2 (i.e. use NOTIFICATION-TYPE)
and see if that's any better.
