Advanced Notification Originator¶
INFORM with custom ContextName¶
Send SNMP notification using the following options:
SNMPv3
with user ‘usr-md5-none’, MD5 auth, no priv
send INFORM notification
in behalf of contextEngineId = SnmpEngineId, contextName ‘my-context’
over IPv4/UDP
with TRAP ID ‘warmStart’ specified as a string OID
Sending SNMPv3 Notification in behalf of non-default ContextName requires having a collection of Managed Objects registered under the ContextName being used.
Functionally similar to:
from pysnmp.hlapi import *
errorIndication, errorStatus, errorIndex, varBinds = next(
sendNotification(SnmpEngine(),
UsmUserData('usr-md5-none', 'authkey1'),
UdpTransportTarget(('demo.snmplabs.com', 162)),
ContextData(contextName='my-context'),
'inform',
NotificationType(ObjectIdentity('1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.2')))
)
if errorIndication:
print(errorIndication)
elif errorStatus:
print('%s at %s' % (errorStatus.prettyPrint(),
errorIndex and varBinds[int(errorIndex) - 1][0] or '?'))
else:
for varBind in varBinds:
print(' = '.join([x.prettyPrint() for x in varBind]))

INFORM with custom ContextEngineId¶
Send SNMP notification using the following options:
SNMPv3
with user ‘usr-md5-none’, MD5 auth, no priv
send INFORM notification
in behalf of contextEngineId 0x8000000004030201, contextName ‘’
over IPv4/UDP
with TRAP ID ‘warmStart’ specified as a string OID
Sending SNMPv3 Notification in behalf of non-default ContextEngineId requires having a collection of Managed Objects registered under the ContextEngineId being used.
Functionally similar to:
from pysnmp.hlapi import *
errorIndication, errorStatus, errorIndex, varBinds = next(
sendNotification(SnmpEngine(),
UsmUserData('usr-md5-none', 'authkey1'),
UdpTransportTarget(('demo.snmplabs.com', 162)),
ContextData(OctetString(hexValue='8000000004030201')),
'inform',
NotificationType(ObjectIdentity('1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.2')))
)
if errorIndication:
print(errorIndication)
elif errorStatus:
print('%s at %s' % (errorStatus.prettyPrint(),
errorIndex and varBinds[int(errorIndex) - 1][0] or '?'))
else:
for varBind in varBinds:
