The sendinform example is used to send v2c and v3 inform requests. The inform requests can be sent from a manager to another manager.
To send the v2c/v3 inform request, you need to provide the following values.
remoteHost - the manager station to which the trap message is sent.
timeticks - the time elapsed between the last initialization of the network and the generation of the trap.
trapOID - the trap OID.
MIB file, OID, and value - values for building the varbinds.
The following commands generate a simple v2c/v3 inform request.
|
java sendinform -m ../../mibs/RFC1213-MIB remotehost 5000 1.5.0 java sendinform -p 8001 -m ../../mibs/RFC1213-MIB remotehost 5000 1.2.0 1.5.0 test |
The above command sends an inform message to the manager application in the remote host. A trap receiver program in the manager station can receive and display the inform message. By default, the inform requests are sent to the port 162 of the manager station.
