OpenSUSE :: How To Snmp Traps Work
Nov 27, 2010
I have a favor to ask, I've been having a really hard time trying to understand how snmp traps work, what can they do for you, and why they are useful. I've done some research and I've even set up snmp clients on linux systems, not necessarily the traps. I know they communicate on port 161 and 162 and I also know that you set them up to connect to a community string. Still I cant grasp the concept. If you don't mind can any one break it down for me, in very basic terms.

I'm trying to sniff snmp traps being sent to a NMS. I'm setting -s to 0 but when I start sniffing, some of the packets, instead of being decoded, show me messages like this:
Code:
[len1468<asnlen1663]
What is that supposed to mean?

I have an issue when sending snmp traps. I have an embedded system connected to a SNMP manager. I am sending traps from the box to the manager continuosly. After sometime I don't see any trpas coming out.
I get this error message.
Cannot open file /proc/net/tcp ...
: Too many open files
Cannot open file /proc/net/snmp ...
: Too many open files
What could be the reason for such an error?

I have created this thread as it sis realy hard for me to send traps from my Linux workstation... I m lost with v1/v2/v3 snmp... So here is the initial configuration: (without traps)
rocommunity myrocom
rwcommunity MyL33tP4ss 10.5.32.202
rwcommunity MyL33tP4ss 127.0.0.1
syslocation "FR"
syscontact root
From there i can "poll" my system. But what should i do if i want my Linux system sending traps when disks are full or system overloaded etc...I have found information on Internet but not easily understandable It is for v3:
rwuser admin
createUser admin MD5 mypasword
#
# From there i would have to comment the lines regarding the communities
#
[code]....
10.5.32.202 is my management host ... is this config ok ? But it seems that trap2sink is for v2 ? How does it work ?

I'm curious as to what defines the SNMP trap info sent by switches? I would like to get updates on 802.1x authentication and state of switches (all manufacturers if possible). Is the data sent via traps determined by the manufacturer or is it possible to modify/select it from the switch MIB?

I need to be able to send snmp traps based on certain severity or content of syslog messages. Can this be done from standard linux? Alternatively, are there MIB's out there that support syslog events so I can get the status from snmp?

Is it possible to configure the RHEL 5.5 syslog to accept SNMP traps? That is I want to use a central logging server to pick up other systems syslogs, and SNMP messages from systems that cannot use remote syslog functions.

We have a situation where we have to set up a server to send traps with information regarding CPU, memory usage, etc. I know snmpd can be set up to allow another process to request snmp information about the server, but can it be done the other way around (have a host send information about itself to another server through snmp)?

I am trying to monitor a Centos 5.3 box using SNMP and I am having a lot of trouble getting the data that i need from it. Everytime I try to get information from the UCD-SNMP MIB it returns "End of MIB". It is my understanding that UCD-SNMP is a standard package when Net-SNMP is installed and should always be there. Then why can't I access it? I have tried removing the reinstalling Net-SNMP, but that hasn't worked. My server is update date on all it's patches as well. It is quite old hardware, but I don't believe that should affect SNMP from being gathered. Iptables is down, and I cant' even get it from the local machine.

I desperately need help with Bering UClibC and SNMP checks. Now before I begin, I have managed to get this working on CentOS in the same hosting environment, so I am not completely new to this.Now my problem.I am trying to get OpManager checks (live moitoring software) to work on Bering 3.1.1 over SNMP.I have configured everything correctly in the snmpd.conf. The correct natting and ports are open from the firewall, I have installed all the packages necessary (netsnmpd.lrp, libm.lrp, libsnmp.lrp, snmpmibs.lrp).
I have been working on this for the last 3 days and it is starting to get very frustrating that I cannot get this to work. The main device that I am trying to get working is a Soekris 5501, thinking that it might be a hardware issue I booted up a workstation and ran Bering and tried it on there and still no luck, which basically ruled out hardware. I believe it's a MIBs issue, but I cannot seem to find the MIB's required for the Soekris device.
Can anyone shed some light on this issue? Or can someone confirm that they have gotten SNMP checks to work with Bering on Opmamager and if so how did you do it?

I have a small problem with lmsensors and snmp since I upgraded my small server from 9.10 to 10.04. I use cacti to monitor my servers usage, disk space as well as temps and fans.
This was running very fine before the upgrade, but now I don't get data anymore from lmsensors. It seems that SNMP doesn't give this information as before. (Cacti log says: "No sensor data was returned from SNMP")
sensors give the following output:
Code:
w83627dhg-isa-0290
Adapter: ISA adapter
Vcore: +1.12 V (min = +0.00 V, max = +1.74 V)
AVCC: +3.41 V (min = +2.98 V, max = +3.63 V)

I just installed FC14 64 bit system and I am looking to setup a snmp trap server so I can send up/down traps from my router to it which in turn will email me though sendmail. I have installed "net-snmp-utils-5.5-21.fc14.x86_64" and "net-snmp-libs-5.5-21.fc14.x86_64" packages and have downloaded snmptt_1.3 but I don't have the command "snmptrapd". Is there another package I need for this? Could it just be x64 doesn't support it?
Here is some info off the box.
[root@scanserver ~]# uname -a
Linux scanserver 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Feb 7 07:06:44 UTC 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I just installed a fresh copy of RHEL 5.4 64-bit on a new machine, taking default configuration during the setup process. Then I realized we need to install SNMP on it. I found the following packages on the RHEL DVD and tried to install them, using both the Red Hat GUI for package installation and also through the command "rpm -i {package_name.rpm}". But I am getting dependency errors. The dependent components are not found on the DVD even though I have it inserted in the drive. Can someone advise how I can add SNMP to an existing RHEL machine?
Packages I tried to add:
net-snmp-5.3.2.2-7.el5.x86_64.rpm
net-snmp-devel-5.3.2.2-7.el5.x86_64.rpm
net-snmp-libs-5.3.2.2-7.el5.x86_64.rpm
net-snmp-perl-5.3.2.2-7.el5.x86_64.rpm

I'm configuring a server for Zenoss monitoring over SNMP, but the SNMP process is running on 127.0.0.1:161 instead of 0.0.0.0:161, according to "netstat -an | grep -i udp".
Not sure why this is happening, but Zenoss reports that SNMP is not running due to this. My snmpd.conf file is the same as all of the other servers that are running SNMP, but this is the first Debian server I've tried to add (the other's are CentOS).

I have been trying to set up SNMP monitoring using Cricket. I believe I have Cricket running fine, however I also believe that I have SNMP set up wrong. When I do an SNMPWALK I get the following:
[Code]....
This tells me I have SNMP running, however I would expect to see a lot more data... Am I correct, should I see more data? I spoke to a friend, and he suggested that I have something not set up correctly in SNMP dealing with the community string...

I have enabled SNMP monitoring in my debian box (using apt-get install snmp) and configured it to allow my PC to query the server.
I'm able to query the server and get SNMP data but when I get STG to give me a per/second graph of the interface octets, it only updates the data every 12 seconds or so.
Is this a setting in SNMP which could be causing this problem? If so, how can I enable it so that SNMP can give me up to the second octet rates.
