I can see how to configure snmpd (Linux sid) to send V2c traps TO a specific machine, but I can not see how to specify which interface (or ip address) to send the traps from.
My problem is that the nodes have various fixed interfaces (both ethernet and wireless) and some transient ones (tunnels) and the monitoring software (OpenNMS) gets confused, or rather has to reorganise things too often, if the traps come from the transient addresses rather than the fixed ones. Part of the problem is that OpenNMS is configured to register as an interface any which sends it a trap. I want this behaviour but I do not want it to get confused mapping that to what it already has because the list of tunnels has changed. It would appear that currently snmpd simply picks the lowest address that is not localhost, and unfortunately I picked a range of addresses for the transient ones that fall below all of the fixes interfaces. I could change it but it would be easier to configure snmpd if that were possible.
