action_snmptrap, action_snmpv1trap − Scripts for sending SNMP traps (version 2c and 1 respectively) from monitor action. "action_snmpv1trap" is obsolete as the preferred SNMP version is 2c.
<action name="snmptrap"> <param name="action−type" value="exec" /> <param name="command" value="$TORRUS_BIN/action_snmptrap" /> <param name="launch−when" value="set, clear" /> </action>
This program is designed for usage from a monitor action only. It takes the arguments from environment variables, as described in action-type "exec" in Torrus XML Configuration Guide. In addition, some values may be supplied via command-line arguments (see section OPTIONS below).
Site-specific variables must be specified in the file snmptrap−siteconfig.pl. Default values are installed by the first run of "make install". Subsequent runs of "make install" do not override this file.
−−host= HOSTNAME
Sets the hostname of the destination host.
−−community= COMMUNITY
Sets the community string to use when sending the trap.
−−port= PORT
Sets the destination UDP port.
−−enterprise= OID
Sets the "enterprise" field of the SNMPv1 trap to a given OID (see RFC 1157 for more details). This option is only available for "action_snmpv1trap" and will be ignored for "action_snmptrap".
−−severity= SEVERITY
Sets the optional severity SNMP variable to some integer value.
