I have the AgentX approach working under both Windows and Linux
(GETS/SETS/WALKs, etc), and I need to send traps/notifications to a
destination. I am currently sending SNMP v2 notifications
using the AgentX interface. I currently have these being emitted to a
destination IP as specified by the trapv2sink entry in the snmpd.conf file.
In my subagent, I am asking a running
master snmpd to send the notification.
This is all well and good, and then the Catch-22 situation. In my
implementation, the destination IP for the traps will be given to my
application over the SNMP interface as a scalar value.
It will not be possible to use a host name as the destination for the trap
or DNS name resolution, but the trap will need to be sent to a specific
destination ip.
Therefore, the destination IP is somewhat dynamic and can't be know a
priori to that it may be written to the config file. I do not want to
runtime write the destination IP to
the configuration file, and then restart the agent using system calls if at
all possible.
Is there a runtime API or argument to one of the trap sending APIs that
will allow me to runtime specify the trap destination ip? I am currently
using the send_v2trap() API to
send the trap.
