It's payload contains an array which contains all received variable bindings.

{
    oid: "1.3.1",                   //OID path
    typename: "OctetString",        //Typename
    value: [Buffer],                //Contains raw data in a Buffer if String
                                    //or data if Integer
    string_value: "test_value"      //Contains data as a string
}

Options

  • Port, Sets the port on which to listen for SNMP traps

  • SNMP Version, select which version of SNMP should be used.

  • SNMP v1/v2c: Community, network community string. The community string acts like a user ID or password. A user with the correct community string has access to network information. The default is public.

    • Username, username of the SNMP User-based Security Model (USM) user.
    • Authentication Protocol, authentication protocol used to authenticate messages sent on behalf of the specified Username.
    • Authentication Key, authentication key used by the selected authentication protocol.
    • Encryption Protocol, encryption protocol used to encrypt messages sent on behalf of the specified Username.
    • Encryption Key, encryption key used by the selected encryption protocol.
  • IP Filter:

    • IP Address, base IP address used for the filter.

    • Network mask, network mask used to calculate the filter IP address range.
      It can be in four-part dotted-decimal format: 255.255.255.0
      or in CIDR (Classless Inter-Domain Routing) notation: 24

Example of IP filter:

IP Address Network mask Filter Start Filter End
192.168.1.1 24 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.254
192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0 10.0.1.1 10.0.1.254
10.0.1.25 30 10.0.1.25 10.0.1.26
10.0.1.25 255.255.255.252 10.0.1.25 10.0.1.26
