Triggers on SNMPTraps in Zabbix 2 (using perl receiver script)

[Jason]

I've got the traps coming into zabbix using the perl receiver script...

12:59:51 2012/11/14 PDU INFO:

SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.24769.100.200.2.0 type=4 value=STRING: "I00640000:All events"

On the above data what can the trigger be configured on? Is it just searching the whole lot as a string match or can I run it on, for example the severity, which is Information in this case?

Hi,

I can't see a way to filter on the info in the VARBINDS section of the trap info... Is this assigned to values/macros that we can compare contents of or is the entire field just text that need to match, for example..

enterprises.24769.100.200.1.0 type=4 value=STRING: "Information"

Does anyone have any information on this?

From the documentation at http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/...types/snmptrap it says that perl is the recommended method on production systems, but information on it is sketchy... For the SNMPTT I can see that each event needs to be configured, but the perl receiver just passes the lot across.

Therefore I can select the snmptraps for the specific application by setting the key as the snmtrap["OID for the APP"]

However, is the information just stored in zabbix as plaintext as displayed? Surely it would be useful to pull out the status field as a severity and be able to use that as a filter?
