Hi,

That I know but I want to send some description of error messages along with snmp trap pdu. Is it possible to send such type of error descrption with snmp trap ? How NMS will identify that this is the error snmp trap pdu ?

By adding one or more varbinds to the end of the standard varbind list.

For example - the snmptrap command given in the tutorial
(http://www.net-snmp.org/tutorial/tut.../snmptrap.html) is:

snmptrap -v 1 -c public host TRAP-TEST-MIB::demotraps
localhost 6 17 ''
SNMPv2-MIB::sysLocation.0 s "Just here"


This is the *minimum* payload that must be send with this trap.
But it's perfectly OK to add other varbinds as well:


snmptrap -v 1 -c public host TRAP-TEST-MIB::demotraps
localhost 6 17 ''
SNMPv2-MIB::sysLocation.0 s "Just here"
SNMPv2-MIB::sysContact.0 s "Dave"
