Hi guys, Maybe this is not the place to ask with help for creating a custom MIB and if not then if someone could point me towards a forum or mailing list I'd be very grateful.
I have a lot of scripts to monitor various systems and most of them will have
some sort of built-in alert functionality that will send an e-mail.. it's a bit
messy to have that functionality all distributed and I wanted to see if snmp
traps may be a better way to go. We cover all the monitoring functionality with
polling for reliability but snmp-traps we use to speed up alerting for critical
systems.
To learn more about this I want to create my own MIB and I have an enterprise
OID (1513) that I can use.
So I send traps with SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.1513.... and passing along some
variable and this is where I'm struggling with syntax and general lack of
understanding. I want to format my mib in the correct way.. maybe it should be
split down into one mib defining objects and then I define the notifications in
another mib.. and and.. so many questions :) I can see various examples out
there but I'd love to have a conversation with someone who actually knows this
stuff.
This is what I have so far:
Advania-Traps-MIB DEFINITIONS ::= BEGIN
IMPORTS
enterprises FROM RFC1155-SMI
advania OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { enterprises 1513
}
objects OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { advania 1 }
notifications OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::= { advania 2 }
-- Objects
trapState OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX DisplayString (SIZE (0..31))
MAX-ACCESS read-write
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"A brief description."
::= { msg 1 }
shortMsg OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX DisplayString (SIZE (0..31))
MAX-ACCESS read-write
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"A brief description."
::= { msg 1 }
longMsg OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX DisplayString (SIZE (0..1279))
MAX-ACCESS read-write
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"Detailed info."
::= { msg 2 }
-- Notifications
customTrap NOTIFICATION-TYPE
STATUS current
VARIABLES { trapState, shortMsg, longMsg }
DESCRIPTION "Custom trap alert."
::= { notifications 1 }
END
Not sure if this is how it's meant to be formatted, any help would be
appreciated..
