agentxtrap [
OPTIONS]
trap-oid [
OID TYPE VALUE...]
agentxtrap issues an AgentX NotifyPDU to a master agent. One or more
object identifiers (OIDs) can be given as arguments on the command line. A
type and a value must accompany each object identifier. Each variable name is
given in the format specified in
variables(5).
-
-c contextName
- if the -c option is present then the notification is
sent in the nondefault name context.
-
-U uptime
- if the -U option is present then that value, parsed
as centiseconds, is taken to be the sysUpTime field of the
application.
-
-x ADDRESS
- if the -x option is present then contact the AgentX
master at ADDRESS and not the default one.
Additionally all the options described in
snmpcmd(1) under the
MIB
PARSING OPTIONS,
LOGGING OPTIONS and
INPUT OPTIONS headers
as well as the
-d,
-D,
-m and
-M options are
supported.
In
OID TYPE VALUE the parsing of the
VALUE field is controlled by
the
TYPE field. The possible values for the
TYPE field is one of
the following characters:
- =
- Let OID decide how VALUE should be
interpreted
- i
- INTEGER
- u
- Unsigned
- c
- Counter32
- s
- OCTET STRING of chaacters
- x
- OCTET STRING, entered as a sequence of optionally space
separated hexadecimal digit pairs
- d
- OCTET STRING, entered as a sequence of space separated
decimal digits in the range 0 - 255
- n
- NULL
- o
- OBJECT IDENTIFIER
- t
- TimeTicks
- a
- IpAddress
- b
- BITS
which are handled in the same way as the
snmpset command.
