alarmTrap

Module: METASWITCH-MIB

OID (symbolic): METASWITCH-MIB::alarmTrap

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.19444.6.2.1.1

Node type: NOTIFICATION-TYPE

Description: This is the alarm trap table for MetaSwitch. A notify is sent on this table when a MetaSwitch object is either alarmed or cleared. Logs associated with the alarmed object are supplied in the Description, Cause, Effect and Action fields. If no log is found then these fields are not filled in. The EMSUniqueIdentifier and Alarm OID together provide a unique identifier across all MetaViews.

Examples

Send this trap to an SNMP manager — replace <manager> with the IP or hostname of your monitoring server (SNMPv2c):

snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' METASWITCH-MIB::alarmTrap
snmptrap -v2c -c public <manager> '' 1.3.6.1.4.1.19444.6.2.1.1

Listen for incoming traps on the manager host (-f keeps it in the foreground, -Lo prints to stdout — useful for testing):

snmptrapd -f -Lo -c /dev/null authCommunity log public

Example snmptrapd log entry:

zoo11-linux.zoo [UDP: [192.168.30.111]:57534->[192.168.30.10]:162]:
