I have a private MIB implemented in the Net-SNMP agent. Several objects defined in this MIB can be retrieved from external electronic devices connected to the agent embedded PC by a serial RS232 bus. So I have a MIB sub-tree related to Device1, another sub-tree for Device2 and so on.
I want to define and send a generic "device fault" trap when a device stops communicating with the agent on the serial bus. If the main MIB tree is .mymib, Device1 is .mymib.Device1, Device2 is .mymib.device2 and so on, could I define two generic notifications immediately under .mymib, such as .mymib.notifDeviceDown .mymib.notifDeviceUp with the payload composed by one scalar variable with MAX-ACCESS accessible-for-notify, such as .mymib.notifDeviceUpDownOID that will assume the values .mymib.Device1 or .mymib.Device2 and so on? My doubt comes from the fact that .mymibDevice1 isn't a "real" variable (I can't make a GET on it, I think I'd receive noSuchInstance error), but only a "tree" identifier. Is it corret to assign this "tree OID" to .mymib.notifDeviceUpDownOID that has a OID type? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
