I have plenty of AIX machines here I'd like to receive traps from. Started testing today and the traps are coming across unknown. The traps look like this:

Code: Select all

Tue Dec 18 16:14:57 2012: Unknown trap (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2.0.1) received from hermes at:
Value 0: hermes
Value 1: 10.97.235.15
Value 2: 150:22:37:01.00
Value 3: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.0.1
Value 4: 10.97.235.15
Value 5: public
Value 6: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2
Value 7:
Value 8:
Value 9:
Value 10:
Ent Value 0: .1.3.6.1.2.1.25.3.3.1.2.1=Wrong Type (should be INTEGER): "CPU"
and

Code: Select all

Tue Dec 18 16:02:51 2012: Unknown trap (.1.3.6.1.4.1.2.0.1) received from hermes at:
Value 0: hermes
Value 1: 10.97.235.15
Value 2: 150:22:24:55.00
Value 3: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.0.1
Value 4: 10.97.235.15
Value 5: public
Value 6: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2
Value 7:
Value 8:
Value 9:
Value 10:
Ent Value 0: .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.191.1.6.1=TestSNMP
As you can see, both of the traps came across as .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.0.1 which is unknown and wouldn't be much help since they all come across as that. However, the information in the "Ent Value 0" field is different and starts with a known OID. Is there a way to get SNMPTT to translate on the "Ent Value"?
