Dave, Sorry - Just realised that I've responded to your private e-mail address by mistake and not the net-snmp-users list
Regards, Ali Please consider the environment before printing this email ----- Forwarded by Ali Bruce/UKMAIN/MM1 on 04/10/2011 14:55 ----- From: Ali Bruce/UKMAIN/MM1 To: Dave Shield <d.t.shi...@liverpool.ac.uk>@MEXT Date: 04/10/2011 10:22 Subject: net-snmp-users Bart, Dave, I'm still a bit confused! In this case I am generating my trap from my Perl Sub Agent which is registered with the Master Agent via the Agent X protocol and responds to SNMP Get, Set and Get Next requests and will also be responsible for generating traps. My interpretation of Dave's statement below, is that in this situation the Agent should automatically generate the correct sysUpTime value : If you are generating a trap from within the agent, then the SNMP engine that generates the notification is the same engine that responds to GET requests. So the sysUpTime value within the trap ought to match the value returned from querying the agent. >From Bart's statement below it is suggested that I can directly obtain the value of sysUpTime from my SubAgent - How do I obtain this from my Perl module? What the Perl SNMP module does is to include the time elapsed since system startup in a trap if the uptime has not been specified explicitly. If you want that value to match the sysUptime of the SNMP agent on the same system, I propose that you query that value before sending a trap.
