KB: Send SNMP Traps from WebWatchBot
SNMP traps can be sent from WebWatchBot, using a freeware command line tool
named "Trap Generator" by "Network Computing Technologies".
WebWatchBot does not natively support the sending of SNMP traps; however,
it can be configured to execute an external command, such as trapgen.exe
(the name of the executable program for Trap Generator).
Follow these instructions to send and SNMP trap from WebWatchBot:
- Download and install "Trap Generator" from the "Network Computing Technologies"
website: http://www.ncomtech.com/trapgen.html
- In WebWatchBot Manager, open the properties of an existing Watch Item or create a new
Watch Item.
- Select the "Alarm" tab.
- Click on the "Actions" button.
- Select the "Commands" tab.
- Enter the fully qualified pathname to trapgen.exe and the parameters. For example:
-d 192.168.0.1 -v 1.3.6.1.4.1.1824.1.0.0.1 STRING "<%WatchItemName%> <%AlarmCondition%> "
Replace the IP Address 192.168.0.1 with the ip address of the machine where you
want the SNMP trap to be sent to.
Check the "Active" checkbox.
- Click OK until all of the windows have closed.
