    Hello,

     

    This section of Southbound Gateway - Case Study - provides the steps to map the trap and customize the event message.

    Hi,

     

    I have followed the above link to create a south bound gateway demonstration and did some changes to AlertMap and EventDisp file. I have send a trap to oneclick console using snmptrap command,however it gives the trap but text string value couldn't be appeared in oneclick console.

    snmptrap -v 1 -c public <source> enterprise oid <destination> 2 0 "TestEventModel"

     

    In this example I want to print text "TestEventModel"  in oneclick console while sending the snmptrap.

     

    How should I get the text string while sending the snmp trap.

     

     

    Thanks,

    Hi Geetika,

     

    I would suggest to use the iReasoning MIB Browser tool where there is the Send Trap utility. It is a GUI based tool which is handy to send traps.

    Then map the varbind to a CA Spectrum variable. And in the Event Message set to show the variable value.
