SNMP Event Handler

Warning: This EventHandler is not supported since version 4.6.8

Overview

The SNMP event handler can be used to respond to get/getnext/set commands.

Configuration

Parameter

Description

class com.architech.switchboard.SNMPSwitchboard
snmpUsername Not currently used.
snmpPassword Not currently used.
snmpOID The base OID. All requests outside this OID are silently ignored.

Objects/Properties/Attributes

The event handler sets the following event properties:

Property Description
event.originator The event handler object.
snmp.command The command request:

get
set
getnext

snmp.oid The request OID
snmp.value The value in case of set or getnext commands.

When the handler receives a get request the snmp.oid contains the OID for the request. You are then expected to set the snmp.value property which will then be returned to the requestor. For a set command the snmp.value already has a value. For the getnext request (e.g. snmp-walk) you are requested to return the OID that immediatly follows the OID provided in snmp.oid. This command is used when SNMP clients are traversing the OID tree. Many unix systems have a snmpwalk command that will allow you to test this command.

Notes

If what you want to is to send SNMP Traps, the system.snmpTrap() is available to you.
