...

Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
    <artifactId>camel-snmp</artifactId>
    <version>x.x.x</version>
    <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>

URI format

Code Block

snmp://hostname[:port][?Options]

...

You can append query options to the URI in the following format, ?option=value&option=value&...

Options

Div
classconfluenceTableSmall

Name

Default Value

Description

type

none

The type of action you want to perform. Actually you can enter here POLL or TRAP. The value POLL will instruct the endpoint to poll a given host for the supplied OID keys. If you put in TRAP you will setup a listener for SNMP Trap Events.

protocol

udp

Here you can select which protocol to use. You can use either udp or tcp.

retries

2

Defines how often a retry is made before canceling the request.

timeout

1500

Sets the timeout value for the request in millis.

snmpVersion

0 (which means SNMPv1)

Sets the snmp version for the request.

snmpCommunity

public

Sets the community octet string for the snmp request.

delay

60 seconds

Defines the delay in seconds between to poll cycles. From Camel 2.15 onwards the delay is using millis as its timeunit, so configure 30000 for 30 seconds. Older releases uses the value in seconds.

oids

none

Defines which values you are interested in. Please have a look at the Wikipedia to get a better understanding. You may provide a single OID or a coma separated list of OIDs. Example:

Routing example in Java: (converts the SNMP PDU to XML String)

Code Block

from("snmp:192.168.178.23:161?protocol=udp&type=POLL&oids=1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0").
convertBodyTo(String.class).
to("activemq:snmp.states");
