send SNMP trap via command

[iptribe]

Hi Support,

I have tried to send a SNMP trap via command line, but my Nagios can't receive the trap. Is my command correct?

snmptrap -v 2c -c public 192.168.1.1 '' NAGIOS-NOTIFY-MIB::nSvcNotify nSvcOutput s "HI"

Is SNMP trapping configured? Are you receiving other SNMP traps?

An easy set would be the following:

telnet 192.168.1.1 162

If you get a "Connection refused" message, then the trap receiver is not present. You can also use nmap to probe for the SNMP trap TCP port 162.

Have you gone through this procedure on your Nagios XI server?

Hi All,

I did follow the tutorial to configure the snmp trap. I am trying to send a trap from remoter server(192.168.1.199) to my nagios server (192.168.1.199) via command line (snmptrap -v 2c -c public 192.168.1.199 '' NAGIOS-NOTIFY-MIB::nSvcNotify nSvcOutput s "HI"), and from the snmpttunknown.log I can see the trap is inside the log.

Tue Mar 10 20:51:29 2015: Unknown trap (.1.3.6.1.4.1.20006.1.8) received from 192.168.1.109 at:

How am I able to send a critical alarm via alarm, any idea?

Did you read through the document tgriep linked to?

http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ios_XI.pdf

It outlines how to adjust severity for traps. Is that the information you're looking for?

This gets kinda complicated.

You need to have an EVENT in your /etc/snmp/snmptt.conf or a trap processed mib file.

Have a read of this post to see if it helps at all.

Thanks guy! I have managed to receive the trap by adding in the EVENT inside snmptt.conf!
