How to send SNMP traps (OVPA)

Since the HP OV Performance Agent is installed on most HP-UX systems, the trapsend command can be used to send SNMP test traps.

Example to send a trap to a monitoring probe:

# /opt/perf/bin/trapsend 217.117.35.117 public 6 1 1.1.1.1.1.0 123456789

Logfile from the labo probe:
