AMTrigger - SNMP Trap |
Description
When a task is triggered, a pre-named (or fixed field) dataset called AMTrigger is created and populated with a collection of data related to the event or condition that initially triggered execution. AMTrigger is a standard Automate dataset which can be used within a task to examine particular characteristics about the initiated trigger, such as the type of event that activated the trigger, when it occurred and what computer it occurred on.
Parameters
The total number of fields that AMTrigger creates during runtime and what they are named depends largely on the trigger that launched the task. Each trigger contains its own set of unique AMTrigger values. The table below lists the AMTrigger values related to the SNMP Trap trigger.

Name |
Data Type |
Return Value |
|
String |
Returns the community specified in the SNMP trap when the task was triggered. |
|
|
String |
Returns the encryption algorithm used by SNMPv3 (i.e. MD5, SHA). |
|
|
String |
Returns the SNMP Engine ID. An SNMP engine is a copy of SNMP that can reside on a local or remote device. To retrieve or manipulate management information using SNMP version three (SNMPv3) it is necessary to know the identifier of the SNMP protocol engine. |
|
|
String |
Identifies the type of managed object that generates the trap. |
|
|
String |
Returns the generic type for the SNMP trap when the task was triggered. |
|
|
String |
Returns the host specified in the SNMP trap when the task was triggered. |
|
|
String |
Returns the SNMP version (i.e. SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, SNMPv3). |
|
|
String |
Returns the specific type for the SNMP trap that triggered the task. |
|
|
String |
Returns the timestamp specified in the SNMP trap when the task was triggered. |
|
|
String |
Returns the SNMP user. An SNMP user is a remote user for which an SNMP management operation is performed. For example, inform operations can be sent to a user on a remote SNMP engine. |
|
|
String |
The number of variables requested by SNMP manager. |
|
|
String |
Returns the variable bindings. Variable Bindings represent a set of OID/Value pairs. Each value available through SNMP is identified by a unique object identifier. To enable mapping of object identifiers to their values a special sequence is required. That sequence is variable binding. |
