DESCRIPTION
This output type will send a SNMP inform request for each converted input. See Net::SNMP for a list of the ConnOpts section parameters.
OUTPUT FORMAT
Output templates should use the following format:
1.3.6.1.2.#.#.#.# # Value, blah blah blah...
1.3.6.1.2.#.#.#.# # Value, blah blah blah...
In other words, each line is a set of varbinds. Within each line is a set of 3 values, separated by whitespace:
OID
Object Type (numeric form)
Value
A list of object types can be found here.
Please note that SNMPv2 defines the first two variables bindings as such:
# sysUpTime.0 TIMETICKS $timeticks
# snmpTrapOID.0 OBJECT_IDENTIFIER $oid
1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0 43 ....
1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.4.1.0 6 ....
Make sure these are included in your template.
TODO
Use Net::SNMPu, when that gets released...
