send_easy_trap, send_trap_vars, send_v2trap - send TRAPs or INFORMs from a Net-SNMP MIB module

Description

       These  three routines may be used to send traps from a MIB module within the Net-SNMP agent (including an
       AgentX subagent).

       send_easy_trap() sends an SNMPv1 trap  (or  the  SNMPv2  equivalent)  to  the  list  of  configured  trap
       destinations (or "sinks"), using the provided values for the generic trap type, and specific trap value.

       send_trap_vars()  is  similar,  but  appends the supplied list of variable bindings to the traps that are
       sent.

       send_v2trap() uses the supplied list of variable bindings to form  an  SNMPv2  trap,  which  is  sent  to
       SNMPv2-capable  sinks  on  the  configured list.  An equivalent INFORM is sent to the configuredq list of
       inform sinks.  Sinks that can only handle SNMPv1 traps are skipped.

       The various "send_trap()" calls allow you to  specify  traps  in  different  formats.   And  the  various
       "trapsink"  directives  allow  you to specify destinations to receive different formats.  But *all* traps
       are sent to *all* destinations, regardless of how they were specified.
       I.e. it's
                                                ___  trapsink
                                               /
           send_easy_trap ___  [  Trap      ] ____  trap2sink
                           ___  [ Generator  ]
           send_v2trap    /     [            ] ----- informsink
                                               ____
                                                     trapsess

Synopsis

Warnings

       These routines are used to send the traps immediately they are called.  Invoking them at the  appropriate
       time is left to the MIB module programmer.
