fetching data from server using SNMP trap in Open VMS 7.2

[Robert Atkinson]

TCPIP$SNMP_REQUEST is an executable, so you can't '@' it.

You must run it, either '$ MC TCPIP$SNMP_REQUEST.EXE' or '$ RUN TCPIP$SNMP_REQUEST.EXE'

Ideally, run @SYS$MANAGER:TCPIP$DEFINE_COMMANDS and use the utility like this :-

ALPHA_ROB$ @SYS$MANAGER:TCPIP$DEFINE_COMMANDS
ALPHA_ROB$ snmp_request
There must be at least 5 runtime arguments.

Usage:
$ snmp_request agent community request_type [flags] variable [type value]

or

$ mcr $1$dga1:[sys0.syscommon.][sysexe]tcpip$snmp_request.exe ...

request_type: get|getnext|getbulk|set

flags: [-v version] [-p port] [-l] [-t] [-d]
[-n non_repeaters] [-m max_repetitions]
[-w wait_seconds_max] [-i max_ignores]
[-r max_retries] [-s sleep_interval]
