Hi again After a loot of testing ;) I understood that the agent, sending traps always takes the engineID of itself(so everytime you restart it a new one), never the engineID specified in the trapsess line...
To monitor the traps by the trapagent on a remote host, i have to create the user in the snmptrapd.conf file with a specific engineID. But when the engineID is always different after restarting, how can I monitor traps then? Then I have to reconfigure every time i restart the agnent?? Or do I understand smthng wrong there? I really would appreciate some help!! Regards Markus BTW:A manual for trapsess would be really fine! > Now I got the following question > > When defining > trapsess like this > > createUser -e 0x8000000001020304 snmpv3_SHA_authNoPriv_trap_dst1 SHA > helloworld > > and > > trapsess -v 3 -u snmpv3_SHA_authNoPriv_trap_dst2 -l authNoPriv -a SHA -A > helloworld 10.16.10.11:162 > > Again I used some dummy engineID > Does the generated trap by restarting the agent take the engineID I have > specified? > > The trap agent running on the target host says > > > usm: usm: USM processing begun... > USM processing begun... > usm: usm: match on user snmpv3_SHA_authNoPriv_trap_dst2 > match on user snmpv3_SHA_authNoPriv_trap_dst2 > usm: usm: no match on engineID (no match on engineID (80 00 1F 88 80 6C 97 > 72 D6 00 15 37 CB 80 00 1F 88 80 6C 97 72 D6 00 15 37 CB ) > ) > usm: usm: Unknown User(snmpv3_SHA_authNoPriv_trap_dst2) > Unknown User(snmpv3_SHA_authNoPriv_trap_dst2) > > so i don't think so?
