Generic snmp trap for OSEM host

[Bernd Theobalt]

I have to implement an OSEM/ISEE host, to where all OpenVMS 8.2 systems running Insight Agent Version 3.4 are sending traps. Using Windows hosts, I can send a generic trap to the OSEM host and I will see it in the notification list of OSEM. I have no idea, how to generate such a generic trap from OpenVMS, so that I can validate the snmp configuration. I played a lot with the VMS "snmp_trapsnd" and "snmp_traprcv" tools, have configured VMS snmp setting like it is described in the OpenVMS Networking Manual, but I can't see any trap on the OSEM host. If I send a trap using the "snmp_trapsnd" utility to a OpenVMS host running the "snmp_traprcv" utility, I see exactly what I send but an OSEM host won't show me any information. Does anybody know, how to generate a generic trap from OpenVMS so that the OSEM will show it?
The purpose of my question is, to test the connectivity of the OpemVMS hosts to the OSEM host.

Best regards

Bernd
