Hi all,
I'm trying to send an SNMPv3 trap and receiving it using net-snmp's
snmptrapd, by using the "how to send an snmpv3 trap" tutorial from
net-snmp (http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/tutorial/tutorial-5/
commands/snmptrap-v3.html). Here's how I'm running snmptrapd:
snmptrapd -c ../etc/snmp/snmptrapd.conf -d -DALL -Lo
snmptrapd.conf contains only this line:
createUser myuser MD5 mypassword DES myotherpassword
Using net-snmp's snmptrap utility, I am able to send the trap:
snmptrap -e 0x0102030405 -v3 -u myuser -a MD5 -A mypassword -l
authNoPriv localhost 42 coldStart.0
However, using the equivalent on the snmp4j console tool, apparently
the engine ID is not set according to the -e option in the trap:
snmp4j -v 3 -p TRAP -u myuser -e 0x01:02:03:04:05 -a MD5 -A
mypassword udp:127.0.0.1/162
Is there any way to force the use of the authoritative engine ID on
the commad line in the trap?
Thanks,
--Rob
