If you are making a fully-managed application with its own sub-agent, then
using agentx
to send your traps is the 'more better' way to go.  With this approach, the
target trap
receivers are configured into the master, and would not need to also/again
be configured
into each sender. That simplifies the system configuration, and eliminated
duplicate config info.

If all you need to do is send a simple trap (one without query-able
variables, and you don't
mind the duplicate config issue, then you can use snmptrap to send your
traps.  Keep in mind
that your application will need to fork/shell snmptrap in order to use it.
