QuestionSNMP informs (assured-delivery traps?) Pin
BambooMoon4-Nov-05 5:56

I have a program that uses Microsoft's WinSNMP to send traps to a configured receiver when certain error conditions occur. This program was pretty much cobbled together using sealing wax and duct tape, as I know very little about SNMP in practice, but it works well.

Now someone told me that they would prefer to use SNMP informs instead of traps because the latter, based on UDP, have no assured delivery, whereas the former have an aknowledgement/retry/timeout mechanism to "guarantee" delivery.

So I googled on SNMP inform till the cows came home and found a few places that describe what SNMP informs are in a general sense but none that shows exactly how to accomplish it, particularly with WinSNMP. My impression is as described below, and my question to anyone who knows better is whether my impression is correct. If not, can you please point me to how I can accomplish this with WinSNMP?

My impression is that SNMP informs basically consist of the sender sending the trap just as it always did, but saving a copy of the message sent until it receives the acknowledgement, or until the sender, independently of WinSNMP, determines that it time to resend. It appears to me that the acknowledgement is not something handled in WinSNMP at all, but is just any kind of message that the sender of the trap and the receiver mutually agree on that the receiver sends back to the sender to tell him that the trap was received. In other words, it appears to me that SNMP inform is not something supported by WinSNMP as distinct from a trap, but is nothing more than a mutually agreed upon conversation between trap sender and receiver.

Is this true? Confused | :confused:

Thanks for any information.
