Hi Frank:
As I mentioned in my original email, the host is not getting recognized, it
throws the "UnknownHostException" at the InetAddress.getByName("HostName").
The reason is the host name will be sent by snmp4j as "localhost:1622" to
this underneath api, ideally it should not be sent with the trap receiver
port. I tried this both for IPv4 and IPv6 address application, in both
cases I see the same issue with snmp4j-2.0.jar.
My application is configurable to bind to particular address, it can be
configured to bind to single socket address or multiple socket addresses.
Following are the cases I tried
1. With snmp4j-1.0.jar : Application is bind to IPv6 socket address, the
java.nio.BufferOverFlowException is thrown.
2. With snmp4j-2.0.jar : Application is bind to all machine IP addresses.
"UnknownHostException" while parsing the target address
3. With snmp4j-2.0.jar : Application is bind to only IPv6 socket address.
"UnknownHostException" while parsing the target address
The code used to parse the address is -
Address targetAddress =
GenericAddress.parse("udp:<HostName>:<TrapReceiverPort>/162");
Am I missing something here? Appreciate your help very much. Please let me
know if you need more details.
Thanks,
Parash
