[SNMP4J] Sending an object identifier

[Gian Marco Gallo]

  Hi

Yeah, I've solved that problem but now I'm not sure I'm going in the 
right direction. In fact my code is:


     private PDU pdu;
     private Snmp snmp;
     private VariableBinding oid;
     private VariableBinding mib_method;
     private VariableBinding object;
     private VariableBinding status;

     oid = new VariableBinding();
     oid.setOid(SnmpConstants.snmpTrapOID);
     oid.setVariable(new OID());
     mib_method = new VariableBinding();
     mib_method.setOid(new OID("0"));
     mib_method.setVariable(new 
OctetString("UCD-NOTIFICATION-TEST-MIB::demoNotif"));
     object = new VariableBinding();
     object.setOid(new OID("0"));
     object.setVariable(new OctetString("SNMPv2-MIB::sysLocation.0"));
     status = new VariableBinding();
     status.setOid(new OID("0"));
     status.setVariable(new OctetString("Test da codice"));

     pdu = new PDU();
     pdu.setType(PDU.TRAP);
     pdu.add(oid);
     pdu.add(mib_method);
     pdu.add(object);
     pdu.add(status);

The server log shows this:

Jun 30 09:50:13 qa1 snmptrapd[10477]: 2010-06-30 09:50:13 
luna.elaide.com [UDP: [192.168.5.19]:58057]: SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapOID.0 = 
OID: SNMPv2-SMI::zeroDotZero SNMPv2-SMI::zeroDotZero = STRING: 
"UCD-NOTIFICATION-TEST-MIB::demoNotif"        SNMPv2-SMI::zeroDotZero = 
STRING: "SNMPv2-MIB::sysLocation.0"   SNMPv2-SMI::zeroDotZero = STRING: 
"Test da codice"

Now I'm thinking that with the code I'm not able to 'hit' the right mib...

Thanks in advance
