I tried to configure nagios to listen to snmp traps from a host.
i have been referring to documents
http://www.samag.com/documents/s=9559/sam0503g/
http://www.snmptt.org/docs/snmptt.shtml#Integration-with-other-software
i am totally confused after trying both these documents
Both have a different way to capture the snmp traps
One uses snmptraphandling.py script and other uses submit_check_result.
Secondly
http://www.samag.com/documents/s=9559/sam0503g/
speicifes
use passive-check-template
but its not mentioned how to define the passive-check-template
if i set
check_period none
nagios does not start
Would appreciate ideas on configuring my monitoring server to receive snmp traps and which documents should i refer.
