Example: Alert Notification for an SNMP Trap from a Receiver

This example alert notification sends all varbinds for the SNMP trap. For instructions about sending all varbinds, see Sending All SNMP Trap Varbinds.

SNMP Trap Example (1)

The header in the preceding example is the Management Information Base (MIB). The MIB file is automatically installed when the SNMP Enabler is installed and is located at software_installation_path\MIB\Simpana.mib. The MIB contains the following fields:

  • Source: The address of the agent generating the trap.

  • Trap OID: The first part of the Trap OID is the vendor’s identification number of the network management system contained in the entity. In the preceding example, this number is the enterprise identification number. The last two digits of the Trap OID indicate products and the software, respectively.

  • Timestamp: The time in hundredths of a second since the network management portion of the system was last re-initialized.

  • SNMP Version: The SNMP version and the engine ID.

The body in the preceding example is the varbind information:

  • Name: The name of the varbind.

  • Value: The value returned for the varbind.

    For a list of possible object types, see Varbind OID Object Types.
