Advanced Notification Originator

Multiple concurrent notifications

Send multiple SNMP notifications at once using the following options:

• SNMPv2c
• with community name ‘public’
• over IPv4/UDP
• send INFORM notification
• to multiple Managers
• with TRAP ID ‘coldStart’ specified as a MIB symbol

Functionally similar to:

$ snmptrap -v2c -c public demo.snmplabs.com 12345 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.2

$ snmpinform -v2c -c public demo.snmplabs.com 12345 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.2
