How to configure the SNMP traps?

[sredd22]

Hi All,

I need your help to configure the SNMP traps configure.I am not sure i am posting the right place or not.

I am using intel S2600GZ server board and installed SNMP subagent version snmpsa-5.0.0-14.x86_64.rpm and i am running on the Suse linuux

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64)

VERSION = 11

PATCHLEVEL = 3

I am able to install snmpsa rpm successfully.

I would like to received the traps in another windows machine.For that I added below entried in the snmpd.conf file

rwcommunity public

# trap2sink localhost public

trap2sink xx.xx.xx.xx:162 public

where xx.xx.xx.xx is trap receiver ip address and 162 is port.

# turn on agentx master agent support

master agentx

I am not receiving any trap events.

and i am using basebrd5_v1 and basebrd5_v2 mibs for checking.

am i missing any configuration either in snmpd.conf or snmpsa.conf files?

Thanks for your inputs in well advance.

To send SNMP Traps do i need to install any OpenIPMI drivers?if yes where can i find the openIPMI rpm?

Regards,

Sankar

You can try the latest version of SNMP SA: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?lang=eng&DwnldID=23164 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?lang=eng&DwnldID=23164. Run the script snmpsubagentinstall.sh to install the agent. You may want to uninstall the old agent first.

Also in the sample files I don't see port 162 is necessary, since 162 is the default port for SNMP.

Another thing is, do you have firewall enabled on your trap receiver? If yes, make sure incoming traffic is allowed on port 162.
