The simplest way to process SNMP traps with the Net-SNMP tools is
to pass the trap content in a string format to a user application.
What that application then chooses to do with this information is up to it.
That's not the only way to handle things - it would be quite feasible to
code a new trap handler, following the model of the standard handlers
in 'apps/snmptrapd_handler.c', and registering this using
netsnmp_add_global_traphandler() or netsnmp_add_traphandler()
[See 'apps/snmptrapd.c' for examples].
But that would involve tweaking the code of the snmptrapd daemon, and
recompiling. We haven't yet tackled dynamic loading of trap handler code.
I've never really looked at 'snmptt', so have no idea how easy that would
be to extend.
