[SNMP4J] forwarding traps to NMS via a proxy

[Shivi Goel -X (shivigoe - NICHEPRO TECHNOLOGIES PRIVATE LIMITED at Cisco)]

Thanks Frank. 
Yes I am using that OID (snmpTrapAddress). 
 I was wondering if there is some other way also to achieve this, as we are having multiple NMS in northbound. Adding this oid works in few cases but one of manager (Zenoss) doesn't understand this oid 'snmpTrapAddress'

Regards,
Shivi

Hi Shivi,

Although the SNMP stanard discourages usage of inband source addresses, you can use the snmpTrapAddress from the SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB as additional object to all the proxied traps.

Best regards,
Frank
