Hi I'd like help writing a c# console app that can send an SNMP trap. I've
seen some documents on writng an SNMP server, but I don't want to receive
traps, I only want to send them.

Thanks
Ben

To send traps,
look for a trap or agent component. IP*Works! Contains managed SNMPMgr and
SNMPAgent components, as well as complete manager and agent demo applications,
supporting SNMPv3 funtionality.

I was hoping that I would be able to use system.management or
system.management.instrumentation...

I just need to find better docs or something. Seems like sending a trap
should be simple!

Perhaps I should find an SNMP RFC and just create a send myself...
 
Correction, did not read your original posting, the WMI's snmp provider is a
snmp client only provider, so you can only receive snmp mib's.

Thanks for the follow-up. The thing that is causing me problems here is
that in looking at this page:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...en-us/dnwmi/html/msdn_wmi_snmp.asp?frame=true

It seems to say that WMI includes several built-in providers. An SNMP
provider being one of them, and then the page goes on to demonstrate how
SNMP has messages and one of the messages is a notify or a trap.

This lead me to believe that maybe, just maybe WMI did what I was looking
for.

Thanks again,
Ben
