Raise alert from C# application via SNMP possible?

RichIOM

Hi,

Does anyone know if it's possible to raise an alert to IPMonitor from a C# application via snmp?  Essentially to raise a status alert depending on severity of problem encountered.

I've done some research on this and cannot find anything conclusive, such as how to create my own OID perhaps that could be monitored by IIPMonitor.

Thanks

Richard.

Hi Richard,

Instead of adding SNMP support to your C# application it may be easier to have it create windows events.  You could then simply monitor the even logs for different Application events you have defined. 

If you still want SNMP support at that point you could use a Windows utility, Evntwin.exe, to forward windows events as SNMP traps.

This tutorial may be helpful: ( See: Configuring the Evntwin.exe Windows Utility on the Remote Server)

Hope this helps!
