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 Desktop 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
AMTrigger.Community String Returns the community specified in the SNMP trap when the task was triggered.
AMTrigger.EncryptionAlgorithm String Returns the encryption algorithm used by SNMPv3 (for example, MD5, SHA).
AMTrigger.EngineID 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.
AMTrigger.Enterprise String Identifies the type of managed object that generates the trap.
AMTrigger.GenericType String Returns the generic type for the SNMP trap when the task was triggered.
AMTrigger.Host String Returns the host specified in the SNMP trap when the task was triggered.
AMTrigger.SNMPVersion String Returns the SNMP version (that is, SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, SNMPv3).
AMTrigger.SpecificType String Returns the specific type for the SNMP trap that triggered the task.
AMTrigger.TimeStamp String Returns the time stamp specified in the SNMP trap when the task was triggered.
AMTrigger.User 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.
AMTrigger.VariableBindingCount String The number of variables requested by SNMP manager.
AMTrigger.VariableBindings 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.
