Options for sm_trapd lists and describes available options for sm_trapd.
| Option |
Description |
|---|---|
| --ascii |
If “--ascii” is not specified on the commandline for starting sm_trapd, sm_trapd converts the entire value of that OID into a printable UTF-8 coding string, such as a varbind. For example, .1.3.6.1.4.1.333.1 -> "abcd012" is converted into .1.3.6.1.4.1.333.1 -> "61 62 63 64 C3 96 30 31 32". If “--ascii” is specified on the commandline for starting sm_trapd, sm_trapd converts only the non-printable characters into a HEX string using the UTF coding for these characters. The remaining printable characters of the original value (octet-string) remain unchanged, such as the varbind. For example, .1.3.6.1.4.1.333.1 -> "abcd012" is then converted into .1.3.6.1.4.1.333.1 -> "abcdXC3X96012." |
| --broker |
Alternate broker location as host:port. For example: --broker AM_HOST-NAME:AM-PORT. Also -b <location>. |
| --community |
Stream the trap community string to the parser. Writes the community string to the sm_trapd.log file.
Note:
This option is required in the sm_trapd command line when using a community string in a hookscript or the $C$ variable. |
| --config=<cfg> |
Name of trap configuration directory where the trapd.conf is located. The trapd.conf file is loaded from one of the following directories:
The file in the local directory takes precedence if the configuration is present in both places.
Note:
Default is --config=trapd. |
| --limitQueueMegs=<num> |
Size limit of internal trap queue. When the limit is reached, discard incoming traps from the most active sources. |
| --model=<model> |
Name of the model library that you want to load. For example: -model=sm_actions. Also -m <model>. |
| --name=<name> |
Registered server name you want to start. Also -name <name>. |
| --output |
Data transfer. |
| --port=<port> |
Alternate port number for receiving traps. Also -p <port>.
Note:
Default value is --port=162. |
| --reloadConfig |
Reload, rather than restart, the trap configuration file for an already-running SNMP trap adapter. For example: -s <adaptername> --reloadConfig. |
| --rules=<name> |
Name of the rules set for parsing traps. For example: --rules=icoi-trapd/trap_mgr_parse.asl. |
| --rules=default |
Name of the default rules set for parsing traps.
Note:
Default is --rules=BASEDIR/smarts/rules/trapd/trapParse.asl. |
| --seed=<file> |
Get SNMPv3/USM credentials from the seed file. For example: --seed=seedfile. The seed file has a path that is relative to the conf directory. |
| --server=<name> |
Name of the server. For example: --server=INCHARGE-OI. Also -s <name>. |
| --source |
Forward the source address of the trap to the trap processor and make this address available to configuration files and ASL scripts. |
| --sport=<port> |
Alternate registration port. Use with --name. For example: --sport=9180. Also -P <port>. |
| --tag |
Tag each varbind value with its type. |
| --window=<num> |
Window size for duplication. Also -w <num>. |
| Trace options |
|
| --traceSNMP |
Trace incoming SNMP messages. |
| --traceRules |
Trace rule compilation. |
| --traceServer |
Trace interactions with the back-end server. |
| --traceParse |
Trace rule matching. |
| Standard options |
|
| --accept=<host-list> |
Accept connections only from hosts on <host-list>, which is a comma-separated list of hostnames and IP addresses. The any option for <host-list> allows any host to connect.
Note:
Default is --accept=any. |
| --daemon |
Run process as a daemon. |
| --errlevel=<level> |
Minimum error printing level.
Note:
Default is --errlevel=Warning. |
| --help |
Print help and exit. |
| --loglevel=<level> |
Minimum system logging level.
Note:
Default is --loglevel=Error. |
| --logname=<name> |
Use <name> to identify sender in the system log.
Note:
Default is the name of a program. |
| --output[=<file> |
Redirect server output (stdout and stderr). The filename is <file>, or the --logname value if <file> is omitted. Log files are in $SM_LOGFILES or $SM_WRITEABLE/logs. |
| --tracelevel=<level> |
Minimum stack trace level. Options for <level> include: One of None, Emergency, Alert, Critical, Error, Warning, Notice, Informational, or Debug. Fatal is a synonym for Critical. For example: --tracelevel=Informational.
Note:
Default is --tracelevel=Fatal. |
| --version |
Print program version and exit. |
| --useif=<ip-address> |
Use this IP address as the source or destination interface address. |
| -- |
Stop scanning for options. |
| --trailingNulls |
This option allows for printing trailing NULL bytes in an octet string of varbind value as 00 or \X00. By default trailing null octets are ignored. For example: Device data: 41 00 00 00 00 sm_adapter data: 41 If sm_adapter is started with option --trailingNulls, then the adapter will print the octet string as it is, that is, the way it is coming from the trap device, including the trailing null octets. For example: sm_adapter started with --trailingNulls option: Device data: 41 00 00 00 00 sm_adapter data: 41 00 00 00 00 |
