Class CIM_SNMPTrapIndication
extends CIM_ProcessIndication

A concrete class for mapping an SNMP Trap to CIM based on the IETF RFC 1157. The usefulness of this class is to describe common trap semantics. But, a complete understanding of any trap data received relies on the Indicaton recipient having access to the sender's MIB. Understanding can be improved by mapping the SNMP domain to CIM, and using CIM LifeCycle and standard subclasses of CIM_ProcessIndication.

GenericTrapuint16
DescriptionstringAn enumerated value that describes the generic trap type: - The coldStart(0) trap signifies that the sending protocol entity is reinitializing itself such that the agent's configuration or the protocol entity implementation may be altered. - The warmStart(1) trap signifies that the sending protocol entity is reinitializing itself such that neither the agent configuration nor the protocol entity implementation is altered. - The linkDown(2) trap signifies that the sending protocol recognizes a failure in one of the communication links represented in the agent's configuration. The Trap-PDU of type linkDown contains as the first element of its variable-bindings the name and value of the ifIndex instance for the affected interface. - The linkUp(3) trap signifies that the sending protocol entity recognizes that one of the communication links represented in the agent's configuration has come up. The Trap-PDU of type linkUp contains as the first element of its variable-bindings, the name and value of the ifIndex instance for the affected interface. - An authenticationFailure(4) trap signifies that the sending protocol entity is the adressee of a protocol message that was not properly authenticated. While implementations of SNMP must be capable of generating this trap, they must also be capable of suppressing the emission of such traps via an implementation- specific mechanism. - An egpNeighborLoss(5) trap signifies that an EGP neighbor for whom the sending protocol entity was an EGP peer has been marked as down and the peer relationship no longer pertains. The Trap-PDU of type egpNeighborLoss contains as the first element of its variable-bindings, the name and value of the egpNeighAddr instance for the affected neighbor. - An enterpriseSpecific(6) trap signifies that the sending protocol entity recognizes that some enterprise-specific event has occurred. The specific-trap field identifies the particular trap which occurred.None TRANSLATABLE= true

IndicationIdentifierstring
DescriptionstringAn identifier for the Indication. This property is similar to a key value in that it can be used for identification, when correlating Indications (see the CorrelatedIndications array). Its value SHOULD be unique as long as Alert correlations are reported, but MAY be reused or left NULL if no future Indications will reference it in their CorrelatedIndications array.None TRANSLATABLE= true

IndicationTimedatetime
