Re: [snmpsim-users] SNMP Trap while simulating agent?

[Ilya E. <il...@gl...>]

Hi Benjamin,

The question is *when* do you need snmpsim sending TRAP?

As of now, snmpsim can send pre-configured TRAP/INFORM messages to 
pre-configured destination once
it receives a GET/SET request from a Manager. So you could query snmpsim 
(by some other means, like
snmpget tool) to trigger snmpsim sending TRAP. Will that work for you?

Here's the instruction:

Let me know in case of any issues.
