Re: SNMPv3 trap vs. SNMP v3 INFORM

SNMPv3 basically concentrates on defining an administrative framework. The fundamental protocol operations are exactly the same as SNMPv2. When would you need to (want to?) send an SNMPv3 TRAP (rather than an SNMPv3 INFORM), as described here: http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/TUT:snm

SNMPv3 trap vs. SNMP v3 INFORM

2007-05-18 Thread George Donato
On this net-snmp web page, it compares SNMPv3 trap vs. SNMPv3 INFORM: http://www.net-snmp.org/wiki/index.php/TUT:snmptrap_SNMPv3 I see information in the RFCs about SNMPv2 traps and SNMPv3 INFORMS, but nothing about SNMPv3 traps. Where is SNMPv3 trap discussed in an rfc, etc.? Thanks. --
