Hello.
I have problems with snmptrap on Windows.
When I try to send a trap with the command line from windows NT or 2000 nodes, nothing is received on my NNM event browser, while doing the same thing on UNIX, I receive the trap.

I'm sending a testing trap like that:

snmptrap manager .1.3.6.1.4.1.11.2.17.1 node 6 58916865 0

(this is the trap for OV_Node_down)

IT WORKS WITH UNIX BUT NOT WITH NT OR WINDOWS.

But when I shut down the node I receive the normal trap asociated (so snmp works). I think the problem is the command but I don't knowk what I'm doing bad.
Thank you in advance.
 
Can I ask how the snmptrap command works?
I have tried snmptrap /?, and help etc, even on my openview/nt4 machine, then I searched google and m$ and hp sites. I can't find where the command options are explained. Maybe its in my hpopenview training materials, but I keep that at work.
I tried the command you are asking about, and did not get a trap logged in my ov alarm viewer. OV_node_down is set to log and display as minor.
Thanks
