[COMMON OPTIONS] AGENT enterprise-oid agent generic-trap specific-trap uptime [OID TYPE VALUE]...
.PP
.B snmptrap \-v [2c|3]
[COMMON OPTIONS] [\-Ci] AGENT uptime trap-oid [OID TYPE VALUE]...

.SH DESCRIPTION
.B snmptrap
is an SNMP application that uses the SNMP TRAP operation to send
information to a network manager. One or more object identifiers
(OIDs) can be given as arguments on the command line. A type and a
value must accompany each object identifier. Each variable name is
given in the format specified in
.IR variables(5) .
.PP
When invoked as
.B snmpinform,
or when
.B \-Ci
is added to the command line flags of snmptrap, it sends an
INFORM-PDU, expecting a response from the trap receiver,
retransmitting if required. Otherwise it sends an TRAP-PDU or
TRAP2-PDU.
.PP
If any of the required version 1 parameters,
.IR enterprise-oid ,
.IR agent ,
and
.I uptime
are specified as empty, it defaults to
.IR "1.3.6.1.4.1.3.1.1 (enterprises.cmu.1.1)" ,
.IR hostname ,
and
.I host-uptime
respectively.
.PP
The
.I TYPE
is a single character, one of:
.RS
.PD 0
.TP 3
.B i
INTEGER
.TP 3
.B u
UNSIGNED
.TP 3
.B c
COUNTER32

.B b

which are handled in the same way as the
.B snmpset
command.
.PP
For example:
.PP
snmptrap \-v 1 \-c public manager enterprises.spider test\-hub 3 0 '' interfaces.iftable.ifentry.ifindex.1 i 1
.PP
will send a generic linkUp trap to manager, for interface 1.
.SH OPTIONS
.B snmptrap
takes the common options described in the
.I snmpcmd(1)
manual page in
addition to the
.B \-Ci
option described above.
Note that
.B snmptrap
REQUIRES an argument specifying the agent to query
as described there.
