Hi I am currently working on implementing trap destinations using trapsess and I am running in some problems
Setup: I have 5 hosts 3 are one is using net-snmp-5.4.2.1(linux system) 1 is using net-snmp-5.4.1(linux system) the other net-snmp-5.5(windows system) What I want to do is to monitor traps simple by tcpdump on the linux hosts, what should work without any problems. I added in the snmpd.conf file on the windows host the following lines trapsess -v 3 -e 0x8000000001020304 -u snmpv3_SHA_authNoPriv_trap_dst6 -l authNoPriv -a SHA -A helloworld 10.16.10.60:162 (and similar ones for the other hosts) However after restarting the agent(which should itself generate a trap), the snmpd.log says: snmpd: send_trap: USM unknown security name (no such user exists) and therefore no traps are beeing sent =>Why do i get an error like this? I picked an example engineID which should be correct; i think the other parameters should be allright too, so as far as i see the configuration should be fine Sending traps works, cause if i define trapsess like this: trapsess -v 3 -u snmpv3_SHA_authNoPriv_trap_dst6 -l authNoPriv -a SHA -A helloworld 10.16.10.60:162 so without engineID the traps can be monitored by tcpdump without any problems! I thought about if creating a user in the same config file would help, but cleary that does not make sense since the other trapsess definition works fine without any problems. The same happens if I define trapsess on almost every other of the linux hosts, except one. Interestengly enough the exact line like above trapsess -v 3 -e 0x8000000001020304 -u snmpv3_SHA_authNoPriv_trap_dst3 -l authNoPriv -a SHA -A helloworld 10.16.10.60:162 works on the host with 5.4.1, cause the log file gives Aug 24 12:18:36 ssg3ux snmpd[14999]: Received TERM or STOP signal... shutting down... Aug 24 12:18:39 ssg3ux snmpd[15013]: NET-SNMP version 5.4.1 Adding the same line and config for another host however again leads to a problem... trapsess -v 3 -e 0x8000000001020304 -u snmpv3_SHA_authNoPriv_trap_dst5 -l authNoPriv -a SHA -A helloworld 10.16.10.70:162 the log says: Aug 24 12:21:38 ssg3ux snmpd[15036]: Received TERM or STOP signal... shutting down... Aug 24 12:21:38 ssg3ux snmpd[15036]: snmpd: send_trap: USM unknown security name (no such user exists) Aug 24 12:21:40 ssg3ux snmpd[15044]: snmpd: send_trap: USM unknown security name (no such user exists) Aug 24 12:21:40 ssg3ux snmpd[15044]: NET-SNMP version 5.4.1 which are error msgs generated when sending traps on stop&start. I am really out of ideas why it behaves like that. Can somebody give me a hint, what's the problem here? I'd really appreciate it! Greeting Markus -- Sicherer, schneller und einfacher.
