RE: [ECOS] snmpTrapOID

["Ali, Khurram" <Khurram_Ali at mentor dot com>]

SNMP defines many traps. 

The value of an SNMP object with sysUpTime as OID specifies the time
since the last reset for the SNMP node.

Likewise, the value of an SNMP object with snmpTrapOID as OID specifies
the trap that the SNMP message is referring to.

Hope this helps.

Dear Sir!

snmp v2 trap consists of:
     sysUpTime   // {1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0}
     snmpTrapOID // {1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.4.1.0}
     varList     // optional, I can attach anyone variable or more

I can understand what is sysUpTime - it is a time, in timeticks, from
system power up till sending trap.

But what is snmpTrapOID? I know, it holds some OID, but what is sense
of the thing? What purpose it serves?

Sincerely yours
Yuriy Coureelo
