SNMPCTL(8) OpenBSD System Manager's Manual SNMPCTL(8)NAMEsnmpctl - control the SNMP daemon
SYNOPSISsnmpctl [-n] [-s socket] command [arg ...]
DESCRIPTION
The snmpctl program controls the snmpd(8) daemon. Commands may be
abbreviated to the minimum unambiguous prefix; for example, s m for show
mib.
The options are as follows:
-n Show numeric OID values instead of their symbolic names.
-s socket
Use socket instead of the default /var/run/snmpd.sock to
communicate with snmpd(8).
The following commands are available:
monitor
Monitor internal messages of the snmpd(8) subsystems and engines.
show mib
Dump the tree of compiled-in MIB objects.
trap send oid-string [oid oid-string type value ...]
Send an SNMP trap via snmpd(8) to the registered trap receivers.
The command takes one oid-string argument as the trap OID and
optional varbind arguments with the specified oid-string, type,
and value. The following types are supported:
ip value An IPv4 address.
counter value A 32-bit counter.
gauge value A 32-bit gauge.
unsigned value A 32-bit unsigned integer.
ticks value A 32-bit timeticks integer value.
opaque value A 32-bit opaque.
nsap value A 32-bit NSAP address.
counter64 value A 64-bit counter.
uint value A 32-bit unsigned integer.
int value A 32-bit integer.
bitstring string A bit string.
