snmpNotifyType
Module: SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB
OID (symbolic): SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB::snmpNotifyType
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.6.3.13.1.1.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-create
Description: This object determines the type of notification to
be generated for entries in the snmpTargetAddrTable selected by the corresponding instance of snmpNotifyTag. This value is only used when generating notifications, and is ignored when using the snmpTargetAddrTable for other purposes.
If the value of this object is trap(1), then any messages generated for selected rows will contain Unconfirmed-Class PDUs.
If the value of this object is inform(2), then any messages generated for selected rows will contain Confirmed-Class PDUs.
Note that if an SNMP entity only supports generation of Unconfirmed-Class PDUs (and not Confirmed-Class PDUs), then this object may be read-only.
What is snmpNotifyType?
This enumerated value determines whether notifications generated for the target addresses selected by this row's tag are sent as unconfirmed traps or confirmed informs. An admin chooses inform(2) when delivery acknowledgment matters, since informs use Confirmed-Class PDUs, versus trap(1) for fire-and-forget notifications. For example, setting this to inform(2) ensures the device retries sending the notification until the receiving manager acknowledges it.
