NAME

snmpd.trap - SNMP trap communities file

SYNOPSIS

/etc/snmpd.trap

DESCRIPTION

The file /etc/snmpd.trap contains the definitions for the hosts which will be sent a TRAP PDU by by the SNMP agent/server daemon, snmpd(1M). The file contains lines which consist of three items: a session or community name, an IP address in dot notation, and the IP port number to which to send the TRAP PDU.  Lines which begin with ’#’ are ignored. 

Currently, two TRAP PDU’s are generated by snmpd. They are the coldStart and authenticationFailure trap types.  The coldStart trap is generated when snmpd is started.  The authenticationFailure trap is generated when an authentication error occurs.

test2 192.9.200.99 162
