You need to have a 'createUser' line - yes. But it does not *need* to specify an explicit engineID. If you don't specify an engineID, then it will use the standard engineID for the trap receiver (which will be logged in /var/net-snmp/snmptrapd.conf). In this case, you would need to specify the same engineID on the client side, as part of configuring the trap destination. Bottom line - both sender and receiver have to agree on what engineID to use. For traps, this must be specified at the sending side or the receiving side (or possibly both). It doesn't really matter which - as long as both sides agree. > Is it a general rule to use a fixed engine ID when sending > a trap from same application? It's a very common approach - yes. Basically because it simplifies the configuration.
