Transport tweaks¶
Notification over multiple network protocols¶
Send SNMP INFORM notifications to multiple Managers over different network protocols:
- SNMPv2c
- with community name ‘public’
- over IPv4/UDP and UDP/IPv6
- send TRAP notification
- to two Managers through different network transports
- with TRAP ID ‘coldStart’ specified as an OID
- include managed objects information: 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 = ‘Example Notificator’ 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 = ‘Notificator Example’
Functionally similar to:
$ snmptrap -v2c -c public udp:104.236.166.95 0 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.1 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 s ‘Example notification’ 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 s ‘Notificator Example’
$ snmptrap -v2c -c public udp6:[::1] 0 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.1 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 s ‘Example notification’ 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 s ‘Notificator Example’

Send packet from specific network interface/port¶
Send SNMP notification using the following options:
- SNMPv1
- with community name ‘public’
- over IPv4/UDP
- to a Manager at 104.236.166.95 UDP port 162
- from local address 0.0.0.0, UDP port 61024
- send TRAP notification
- with TRAP ID ‘coldStart’ specified as an OID
Functionally similar to:
$ snmptrap -v1 -c public 104.236.166.95 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.1 0.0.0.0 1 0 0
