Title: Re: snmpTargetAddrTable inconsistent values

Hi,

 

The following directive (in snmpd.conf) populates values in to snmpTargetAddrTable.

 

trapsess -e 0x900003ddf15414344452 -v 3 -u admin -a SHA -x AES -l noAuthNoPriv 10.201.114.135 -Ci -r 3 -t 15

 

options:

 r: retry count
 t: timeout

 

If I don't include these values then it will take timeout as 1000 and retry count as 5. As per the MIB defintion the default values are 1500 and 3. But these values are not observed in the snmpTargetAddrTable when querying through snmptable query.

 

But when I give 15 as timeout value in trapsess then it shows 15000 value in timeout in snmpTargetAddrTable entries. How to to intialize this value as 1500 in this table for timeout.

 

Thanks in advance,
Mahesh

the trapsess line actually pulls defaults from the standard snmp
command line utilities.  You can override them with the -t and -r flags.

trap2sink entries don't do retries and timeouts because they're not
acknowledge messages.  It doesn't make sense for them.
