snmpTrapCommunity
Module: SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB
OID (symbolic): SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB::snmpTrapCommunity
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.6.3.18.1.4
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: OCTET STRING
Access: accessible-for-notify
Description:
The value of the community string field of an SNMPv1 message containing a Trap PDU which is forwarded by a a proxy forwarder application using an SNMP version other than SNMPv1. The value of this object SHOULD contain the value of the community string field from the original SNMPv1 message containing a Trap PDU as generated by an SNMPv1 agent. There is no SIZE constraint specified for this object because RFC 1157 does not impose any explicit limitation on the length of community strings (their size is constrained indirectly by the SNMP message size).
What is snmpTrapCommunity?
This object stores the SNMP community string from an original SNMPv1 trap that is forwarded by a proxy agent using SNMPv3 or SNMPv2. It preserves the authentication community context so that downstream SNMP managers can verify the trap's authenticity. Operators use this when deploying proxy forwarders to maintain SNMPv1 trap semantics across protocol version boundaries.
