If you're SNMP trap is received from the OpenNMS server, you can then start looking in trapd.log of your OpenNMS server and verify if community settings for the IP is correct.Use tcpdump to see if the SNMP trap from your Nexus arrives on the OpenNMS server by looking at traffic with target port 162 with protocol UDP.The two snmptrap commands described in TUT:snmptrapSNMPv1Traps : snmptrap -v 1 -c public host. By default, it will simply log all incoming notifications via syslog. Starting with Net-SNMP release 5.3, you must specify who is authorized to send traps and informs to the notification receiver (and what types of processing these are allowed to. You configure how incoming traps are processed in the /etc/snmp/nf file. The Net-SNMP suite includes an application snmptrapd which can accept and process such notifications. The Net-SNMP trap daemon configured in /etc/snmp/nf receives SNMP traps.

Two special keywords can be used in place of an OID: default and all. We also need something to receive the notification, and respond accordingly.

The Nexus device has an SNMP agent running which is listening on port 161/UDP. (The following example enables the router to send all traps to the host using the community string 'public') snmp-server enable traps snmp snmp-server host 172.30.2.160 public snmp (172.30.2. This module can NOT be used in a normal perl script to receive traps.

Registration of functions is then done through the nf configuration file.

Net-SNMP MUST have been configured using -enable-embedded-perl. This is what you do when you issue a snmpwalk or snmpget command. The NetSNMP::TrapReceiver module is used to register perl subroutines into the Net-SNMP snmptrapd process. The monitoring application sends requests to your Nexus device. Ok, first of all, there are two concepts with SNMP, the first one is polling for data to get data from sensors or discover elements from your device.
