Chapter 3 Using SNMPUTIL Control of the HP SNMP/XL subsystem is provided through a User Defined Command (UDC) and a set of MPE/iX command files that invoke the SNMPUTIL program. The SNMPCONTROL UDC file (SNMPUDC) and command files are located in the NET group of the SYS account. The SNMPUTIL is responsible for creating the SNMP process on startup and sending a shutdown message to the stack process, in order to start and stop the SNMP stack. It also can be used to generate SNMP requests, format responses back to the user, and generate SNMP traps. It is necessary to have NM capability in order to use either the command line interface or the SNMPCONTROL command. When the command line interface is used, the SNMPUTIL process is responsible for outputting the input/output packets. This chapter consists of the following major topics: * SNMPCONTROL User Defined Command. * SNMP command files.
