  • Method Details

    • notify

      Object notify(org.snmp4j.smi.OctetString context, org.snmp4j.smi.OID notificationID, org.snmp4j.smi.VariableBinding[] vbs)
      Sends notifications (traps) to all appropriate notification targets. The targets to notify are determined through the SNMP-TARGET-MIB and the SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB.
      Parameters:
      context - the context name of the context on whose behalf this notification has been generated.
      notificationID - the object ID that uniquely identifies this notification. For SNMPv1 traps, the notification ID has to be build using the rules provided by RFC 2576.
      vbs - an array of VariableBinding instances representing the payload of the notification.
      Returns:
      an array of ResponseEvent instances. Since the NotificationOriginator determines on behalf of the SNMP-NOTIFICTON-MIB contents whether a notification is sent as trap/notification or as inform request, the returned array contains an element for each addressed target, but only a response PDU for inform targets.

    • notify

      Object notify(org.snmp4j.smi.OctetString context, org.snmp4j.smi.OID notificationID, org.snmp4j.smi.TimeTicks sysUpTime, org.snmp4j.smi.VariableBinding[] vbs)
      Sends notifications (traps) to all appropriate notification targets. The targets to notify are determined through the SNMP-TARGET-MIB and the SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB.
      Parameters:
      context - the context name of the context on whose behalf this notification has been generated.
      notificationID - the object ID that uniquely identifies this notification. For SNMPv1 traps, the notification ID has to be build using the rules provided by RFC 2576.
      sysUpTime - the value of the sysUpTime for the context context. This value will be included in the generated notification as sysUpTime.0.
      vbs - an array of VariableBinding instances representing the payload of the notification.
      Returns:
      an array of ResponseEvent instances. Since the NotificationOriginator determines on behalf of the SNMP-NOTIFICATON-MIB contents whether a notification is sent as trap/notification or as inform request, the returned array contains an element for each addressed target, but only a response PDU for inform targets.
