SNMPD - passing values in a trap
- by ethrbunny
Im trying to create an SNMP setup to monitor 500-1K machines. Each will be joined to the SNMPTRAPD server via a VPN.
When the client system sends its messages, it's sending its internal address instead of the VPN address even though the 'trapsync' command is using the VPN. This will be a problem as many of these system will have DHCP addresses based on location so there will be overlap.
What I'd like to figure out is how to pass extra values with the trap so I can identify which system a given trap comes from.
