SNMP Linux help

Please could someone help - advise :

I am running linux on a HP server, and I have installed the HP SMNP agents to the server.

The snmpd process is running ok, I would like to send an snmp test message to the GMI server ( netcool ). Please could someone advise me the snmp command I can use.

Thank you

I only know it with Net-SNMP. Is there any documentation available with this HP SNMP agent?

What kind of message do you want to sent? The SNMP manager should be able to access the mib implemented on the agent; that would prove that the agent works properly. If you want to test the communication agent -> manager, then I guess you want to sent a trap.

As Loic suggested use the HP utilities or use net-snmp programs.


Code:
$ whatis snmptest
snmptest (1)         - communicates with a network entity using SNMP requests

$ whatis snmptrap
snmptrap (1)         - sends an SNMP notification to a manager
