SNMP Trap Format
Some third party network management applications, such as NetExpert,
OpenView, and SunNet, allow you to trigger a desired operation when a specific
SNMP trap is received. This section describes the SNMP trap format.
The router platform transmits a Bay Networks event log trap as a 32-bit value as
follows:
• Octets 1 and 2 (the most significant 16 bits) of the specific trap ID contain
values of 1 and 0, respectively, to identify a Bay Networks event log trap.
• Octet 3 of the specific trap ID contains a code that identifies the software
entity that generated the trap.
• Octet 4 of the specific ID contains the event code that, in conjunction with the
entity code, uniquely identifies the event.
Each 32-bit value is accompanied by three variable bindings that convey the event
string that describes the trap condition, the slot that hosts the entity that generated
the trap, and the trap severity (see T
able 2-1).
See Event Messages for Routers for detailed information about the SNMP trap
format.
Trace Indicates information about each packet that traversed the
network. Bay Networks recommends viewing this type of trap
message only when diagnosing network problems.
