11.8.5 Setting Trap Parser Parameters
The following are some important fields and information on how to configure them for a given trap.
• name - The name of the parser.
• severity - This is used to specify the state of an event, which determines the severity shown in the ListTraps. This severity
determines how a fault is affected by this event. The type of this filed is an integer ranging from 0 to 6.
• 0 is for All.
• 1 is for Critical.
• 2 is for Major.
• 3 is for Minor.
• 4 is for Warning.
• 5 is for Clear.
• 6 is for Info. By default 6 will be assigned.
• textDefn - This is the message text seen for this event in the ListTraps and logs.
• categoryDefn - This is a type of the trap that can be used to categorize trap events.
• helpDefn - The associated document for this trap.
• ST - This is the specific type of the trap that has values from 0-64K.
• GT - This is the generic type of the trap that has values from 0-6.
• enterprise - This is the enterprise OID of the trap.
For example, you can try the following:
This command sends the trap using the sendtrap application (from the agent 192.168.1.1 at port 4001).
Input: java sendtrap -p 4001 -c public -m mibs/RFC-1213 192.168.1.1 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 192.168.1.1 0 0 1000 .1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0
