snmpXwbemd

- SNMP Adapter Subagent for WBEM

Synopsis

/usr/sadm/lib/wbem/snmpXwbemd [-d] [-h] [-p port]

Description

The snmpXwbemd daemon is a subagent in the Web-Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) services package.

This daemon maps the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) requests forwarded by the Solstice Enterprise Agents (SEA) Master Agent snmpdx(1M) into one or more equivalent WBEM Common Information Model (CIM) properties and instances. Further, it remaps the response from the CIM Object Manager into a SNMP response, which it passes back to snmpdx(1M).

A mapping file contains the corresponding Object Identifier (OID), class name, property name, and Abstract Syntax Notation 1 (ASN.1) type for each object. You can also create your own mapping file.

Options

The following options are supported:

-d

Displays all debug information.

-h

Displays help by printing the correct command line usage.

-p

Specifies the port number to use.

Operands

The following operand is supported:

port

Specifies the port number you want to use.

# *** Description of contents ***
#
# First non-commented non-blank line contains required Version label.
# Remaining non-commented non-blank lines are considered map entries 
# used as described below:
#
# Column 1 - SNMP OID - Uniquely describes an SNMP variable
# Column 2 - CIM Class Name - CIM class associated with this variable
# Column 3 - CIM Property Name - CIM property that maps to SNMP OID variable
# Column 4 - ASN.1 type - SNMP datatype that dictates how data is mapped 
#            to/from SNMP requests.  Supported types are: SnmpString, SnmpOid,
#            SnmpTimeticks, SnmpCounter, SnmpInt, SnmpGauge, SnmpIpAddress, 
#            SnmpOpaque)
# Column 5 and greater are ignored
