# SNMPTrapMgr Component

The SNMPTrapMgr component provides a UDP-based listening point for SNMP traps.

## Syntax

```text
nsoftware.IPWorksSNMP.SNMPTrapMgr
```

## Remarks

The SNMPTrapMgr component provides a UDP-based listening point for SNMP traps and informs as specified by the SNMP RFCs. The component supports v1, v2c, and v3 traps.

SNMP over DTLS is also supported when [SSLEnabled](#sslenabled-property-snmptrapmgr-component) is set to True. The **SSLCert** properties are used to select a certificate for the server. The [SSLStatus](#sslstatus-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event provides information about the DTLS handshake. When client authentication is required, the [SSLAuthenticateClients](#sslauthenticateclients-property-snmptrapmgr-component) property can be set to True and the [SSLClientAuthentication](#sslclientauthentication-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event can be used to examine client credentials.

The component provides both encoding/decoding and transport capabilities, making the task of developing a custom SNMP Trap manager as simple as setting a few key properties and handling a few events. SNMP data, such as for instance SNMP object id-s (OID-s) are exchanged as text strings, thus further simplifying the task of handling them.

The component is activated/deactivated by calling the [Activate](#activate-method-snmptrapmgr-component) or [Deactivate](#deactivate-method-snmptrapmgr-component) method. These methods enable or disable sending and receiving. The activation status can be found in the [Active](#active-property-snmptrapmgr-component) property.

Messages are received through events such as [Trap](#trap-event-snmptrapmgr-component), [InformRequest](#informrequest-event-snmptrapmgr-component), or [DiscoveryRequest](#discoveryrequest-event-snmptrapmgr-component).

SNMP OIDs, types, and values are provided in the [Objects](#objects-property-snmptrapmgr-component) collection of SNMP objects for both sent and received packets.

SNMPv3 USM security passwords are requested through the [GetUserPassword](#getuserpassword-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event, and event parameters such as *User* and *SecurityLevel* provide information about the security attributes of received requests, and enable granular decision capability about what to provide and what not to provide.

The [AddUser](#adduser-method-snmptrapmgr-component), [RemoveUser](#removeuser-method-snmptrapmgr-component), [ShowCache](#showcache-method-snmptrapmgr-component), [ClearCache](#clearcache-method-snmptrapmgr-component), [AddEngine](#addengine-method-snmptrapmgr-component), and [RemoveEngine](#removeengine-method-snmptrapmgr-component) methods are used to manage an internal authentication cache. This internal cache can be used as an alternative to the [GetUserPassword](#getuserpassword-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event, automatically checking the cache against the security parameters provided in the request signature.

# AcceptData Property ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Enables or disables data reception.

## Syntax

```text
public bool AcceptData { get; }
```

## Default Value

True

## Remarks

Setting the property to False temporarily disables data reception. Setting the property to True re-enables data reception.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

# Active Property ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Indicates whether the component is active.

## Syntax

```text
public bool Active { get; }
```

## Default Value

False

## Remarks

This property indicates whether the component is currently active and can send or receive data.

The component will be automatically activated if it is not already and you attempt to perform an operation which requires the component to be active.

Use the [Activate](#activate-method-snmptrapmgr-component) and [Deactivate](#deactivate-method-snmptrapmgr-component) methods to control whether the component is active.

This property is read-only and not available at design time.

# LocalEngineId Property ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

The Engine Id (for SNMPv3).

## Syntax

```text
public string LocalEngineId { get; set; }
public byte[] LocalEngineIdB { get; set; }
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

This property is necessary for properly handling [InformRequest](#informrequest-event-snmptrapmgr-component) packets.

# LocalHost Property ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

The name of the local host or user-assigned IP interface through which connections are initiated or accepted.

## Syntax

```text
public string LocalHost { get; set; }
```

## Default Value

""

## Remarks

This property contains the name of the local host as obtained by the *gethostname()* system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface) setting LocalHost to the IP address of an interface will make the component initiate connections (or accept in the case of server components) only through that interface. It is recommended to provide an IP address rather than a hostname when setting this property to ensure the desired interface is used.

If the component is connected, the LocalHost property shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

NOTE: LocalHost is not persistent. You must always set it in code, and never in the property window.

# LocalPort Property ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

The port in the local host where the component is bound to.

## Syntax

```text
public int LocalPort { get; set; }
```

## Default Value

162

## Remarks

The LocalPort property must be set before the component is activated ([Active](#active-property-snmptrapmgr-component) is set to True). It instructs the component to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

The default port is 162 (standard trap port). If that port is busy, an error will be returned, unless the [ForceLocalPort](#ForceLocalPort) configuration setting is set to False, in which case a random port will be chosen.

LocalPort cannot be changed once the component is [Active](#active-property-snmptrapmgr-component). Any attempt to set the LocalPort property when the component is [Active](#active-property-snmptrapmgr-component) will generate an error.

NOTE: on macOS and iOS, root permissions are required to set LocalPort to any value below 1024.

# Objects Property ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

The objects in the current request.

## Syntax

```text
public SNMPObjectList Objects { get; }
```

## Remarks

The SNMP objects being sent or received in the current request. The collection is first cleared, then populated every time an SNMP packet is received. It is also used to create outgoing SNMP packets.

This collection is indexed from *0* to *Count - 1*.

 Please refer to the [SNMPObject](#snmpobject-type) type for a complete list of fields.

# RequestId Property ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

The request-id to mark outgoing packets with.

## Syntax

```text
public int RequestId { get; set; }
```

## Default Value

1

## Remarks

If a custom value is needed for RequestId, the property must be set before sending the request. The component increments RequestId automatically after sending each packet.

This property is not available at design time.

# SSLAuthenticateClients Property ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

If set to True, the server asks the client(s) for a certificate.

## Syntax

```text
public bool SSLAuthenticateClients { get; set; }
```

## Default Value

False

## Remarks

This property is used in conjunction with the [SSLClientAuthentication](#sslclientauthentication-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event. Please refer to the documentation of the [SSLClientAuthentication](#sslclientauthentication-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event for details.

# SSLCert Property ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

The certificate to be used during Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) negotiation.

## Syntax

```text
public Certificate SSLCert { get; set; }
```

## Remarks

This property includes the digital certificate that the component will use during SSL negotiation. Set this property to a valid certificate before starting SSL negotiation. To set a certificate, you may set the [Encoded](#Certificate_f_Encoded) field to the encoded certificate. To select a certificate, use the store and subject fields.

 Please refer to the [Certificate](#certificate-type) type for a complete list of fields.

# SSLEnabled Property ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Whether DTLS is enabled.

## Syntax

```text
public bool SSLEnabled { get; set; }
```

## Default Value

False

## Remarks

This setting specifies whether DTLS is enabled in the component. When False (default) the component operates in plaintext mode. When True DTLS is enabled.

This property is not available at design time.

Activates the component.

## Syntax

```text
public void Activate();

Async Version
public async Task Activate();
public async Task Activate(CancellationToken cancellationToken);
```

## Remarks

This method activates the component and will allow it to send or receive data.

The component will be automatically activated if it is not already and you attempt to perform an operation which requires the component to be active.

NOTE: Use the [Active](#active-property-snmptrapmgr-component) property to check whether the component is active.

# AddEngine Method ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Adds the engine specified by * EngineId * to the internal authentication cache.

## Syntax

```text
public void AddEngine(byte[] engineId, int engineBoots, int engineTime);

Async Version
public async Task AddEngine(byte[] engineId, int engineBoots, int engineTime);
public async Task AddEngine(byte[] engineId, int engineBoots, int engineTime, CancellationToken cancellationToken);
```

## Remarks

The internal authentication cache can be used as an alternative to the [GetUserPassword](#getuserpassword-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event, automatically checking the cache against the security parameters provided in the request signature.

The [ShowCache](#showcache-method-snmptrapmgr-component) method is used to show the contents of the internal authentication cache.

The [ClearCache](#clearcache-method-snmptrapmgr-component) method can be used to completely clear the cache.

If the engine parameters are unknown, the [SNMPMgr](SNMPMgr.md#SNMPMgr) component's Discover method can be used to perform a discovery with the agent. The RemoteEngineId, RemoteEngineTime, and RemoteEngineBoots properties will hold the values that can then be passed to this method.

# AddUser Method ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Adds a user for the engine specified by * EngineId * to the internal authentication cache.

## Syntax

```text
public void AddUser(string user, byte[] engineId, int authenticationProtocol, string authenticationPassword, int encryptionAlgorithm, string encryptionPassword);

## Syntax

```text
public string Config(string configurationString);

Async Version
public async Task<string> Config(string configurationString);
public async Task<string> Config(string configurationString, CancellationToken cancellationToken);
```

## Remarks

Config is a generic method available in every component. It is used to set and retrieve [configuration settings](#config-settings-snmptrapmgr-component) for the component.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the Config method.

To set a configuration setting named *PROPERTY*, you must call *Config("PROPERTY=VALUE")*, where *VALUE* is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a [configuration setting](#config-settings-snmptrapmgr-component), you must call *Config("PROPERTY")*. The value will be returned as a string.

# Deactivate Method ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Deactivates the component.

  public bool IsNew { get; }
  public bool Accept { get; set; }
}
```

## Remarks

The *Accept* parameter determines if the engine will be accepted or not. If you set *Accept* to False prior to exiting the event, the processing on the message will stop and a [BadPacket](#badpacket-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event will be fired.

The default value of *Accept* is True if and only if:

a) the engine already exists in the internal authentication cache (the *IsNew* parameter is False) and the timeliness has been verified;

b) the engine does not exist in the internal authentication cache (the *IsNew* parameter is True), but the packet has been authenticated by the component (*SecurityLevel* >= 1).

 In all other cases, the default value for *Accept* is False, and you are responsible for accepting or not accepting the engine based on other considerations.

 If *Accept* is true upon event exit, then:

a) if the engine already exists in the internal authentication cache, its time is updated to reflect the new time and the processing of the packet continues;

b) if the engine does not exist in the internal authentication cache, it is added there and if *User* is authenticated, the *User* will be added too.

# Connected Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Fired immediately after a connection completes (or fails).

## Syntax

```text
public event OnConnectedHandler OnConnected;

public delegate void OnConnectedHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrConnectedEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrConnectedEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string RemoteAddress { get; }
  public int RemotePort { get; }
  public int StatusCode { get; }
  public string Description { get; }
}
```

## Remarks

This event fires after a connection completes or fails.

*StatusCode* is the value returned by the system TCP/IP stack. This will be 0 if the connection was successful.

*Description* contains a human readable description of the status. This will be "OK" if the connection was successful.

*RemoteAddress* is the IP address of the remote host.

*RemotePort* is the port on the remote host.

# Disconnected Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Fired when a connection is closed.

## Syntax

```text
public event OnDisconnectedHandler OnDisconnected;

public delegate void OnDisconnectedHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrDisconnectedEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrDisconnectedEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string RemoteAddress { get; }
  public int RemotePort { get; }
  public int StatusCode { get; }
  public string Description { get; }
}
```

## Remarks

This event fires after a connection is broken.

*StatusCode* is the value returned by the system TCP/IP stack. This will be 0 if the connection was broken normally.

*Description* contains a human readable description of the status. This will be "OK" if the connection was broken normally.

*RemoteAddress* is the IP address of the remote host.

*RemotePort* is the port on the remote host.

# DiscoveryRequest Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Fired when an SNMPv3 discovery packet is received.

## Syntax

```text
public event OnDiscoveryRequestHandler OnDiscoveryRequest;

public delegate void OnDiscoveryRequestHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrDiscoveryRequestEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrDiscoveryRequestEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string EngineId { get; }  public byte[] EngineIdB { get; }
  public int EngineBoots { get; }
  public int EngineTime { get; }
  public string User { get; }
  public int SecurityLevel { get; }
  public string SourceAddress { get; }
  public int SourcePort { get; }
  public bool Respond { get; set; }
}
```

## Remarks

*EngineId*, *EngineBoots*, *EngineTime*, and *User* are the values received from *SourceAddress*.

For SNMPv3, the *User* parameter shows the user that was supplied with the packet. This parameter *MUST* be used together with the *SecurityLevel* parameter which shows the level of security in the message.

The *SecurityLevel* parameter shows whether the request has been authenticated. If *SecurityLevel* is 0, the request has *NOT* been authenticated (i.e. the packet signature has not been verified). For an authenticated, non encrypted request, *SecurityLevel* is 1. For an authenticated and encrypted request, *SecurityLevel* is 2.

*Respond* is True by default, and will automatically send a response using the value in [LocalEngineId](#localengineid-property-snmptrapmgr-component). To suppress the response, set *Respond* to False.

The value returned to *SourceAddress* for *EngineBoots* is always 0, and *EngineTime* is the number of seconds since January 1st, 1970 (GMT).

# Error Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Fired when information is available about errors during data delivery.

## Syntax

```text
public event OnErrorHandler OnError;

public delegate void OnErrorHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrErrorEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrErrorEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public int ErrorCode { get; }
  public string Description { get; }
}
```

## Remarks

The Error event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during message processing. Normally the component throws an exception.

The *ErrorCode* parameter contains an error code, and the *Description* parameter contains a textual description of the error. For a list of valid error codes and their descriptions, please refer to the [Error Codes](#trappable-errors-snmptrapmgr-component) section.

# GetUserPassword Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Retrieves a password associated with a user.

## Syntax

```text
public event OnGetUserPasswordHandler OnGetUserPassword;

public delegate void OnGetUserPasswordHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrGetUserPasswordEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrGetUserPasswordEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public int PasswordType { get; }
  public string User { get; }
  public string EngineId { get; }  public byte[] EngineIdB { get; }
  public string Password { get; set; }
  public int Algorithm { get; set; }
}
```

## Remarks

The GetUserPassword event is fired after initial inspection of SNMPv3 requests.

The type of password required is provided in the *PasswordType* parameter: 1 for authentication, and 2 for encryption (privacy).

The password corresponding to *User* and *EngineId* must be provided in the *Password* parameter. If the password is valid, processing will continue to other events such as GetRequest, SetRequest, etc.

If the *PasswordType* parameter is 1 (authentication is used), the *Algorithm* parameter can be set. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| Value | Authentication Algorithm |
| 0 (default) | Any |
| 1 | MD5 |
| 2 | SHA1 |
| 3 | SHA256 |
| 4 | SHA512 |

 If the *PasswordType* parameter is 2 (encryption is used), the *Algorithm* parameter must also be set. Possible values are:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| Value | Encryption Algorithm |
| 1 (default) | DES |
| 2 | AES |
| 3 | 3DES |
| 4 | AES192 |
| 5 | AES256 |

If the password does not match the signature in the request, a [BadPacket](#badpacket-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event will be fired, at which point you can decide whether to report the error to the client (see the description of the [BadPacket](#badpacket-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event for more information).

If the *User* is invalid or unknown, set the password to empty string (default) to ignore the request. This will result in a [BadPacket](#badpacket-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event being fired, at which point you can decide whether to report the error to the client or not.

# GetUserSecurityLevel Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Sets the security level for an incoming packet.

## Syntax

```text
public event OnGetUserSecurityLevelHandler OnGetUserSecurityLevel;

public delegate void OnGetUserSecurityLevelHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrGetUserSecurityLevelEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrGetUserSecurityLevelEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string User { get; }
  public string EngineId { get; }  public byte[] EngineIdB { get; }
  public int SecurityLevel { get; set; }
}
```

## Remarks

The GetUserSecurityLevel event is fired after the first inspection of each SNMPv3 request. The *SecurityLevel* parameter determines the level of security for the message.

On entry, the *SecurityLevel* parameter contains the default security level for *User* if the user is located in the internal cache, or if the *User* is not found in the cache, the *SecurityLevel* will be -1.

The value of *SecurityLevel* upon exiting the event, determines how the message will be processed:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| -1 | The message will be ignored and a [BadPacket](#badpacket-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event will be fired. |
| 0 | No security. The message will be processed without any authentication and/or encryption. |
| 1 | Authentication only. The message will be checked for a valid signature and the [GetUserPassword](#getuserpassword-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event will be fired to verify the authentication password. |
| 2 | Authentication and Privacy. The message will be checked for a valid signature and the [GetUserPassword](#getuserpassword-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event will be fired twice: first to verify the authentication password, and then to verify the privacy password. |

# HashPassword Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Fired before and after a password is hashed.

## Syntax

```text
public event OnHashPasswordHandler OnHashPassword;

public delegate void OnHashPasswordHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrHashPasswordEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrHashPasswordEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string Password { get; }
  public int AuthAlgorithm { get; }
  public string Hash { get; set; }
}
```

## Remarks

SNMPv3 passwords are hashed in order to obtain authentication and encryption keys. This is an expensive operation, and in certain situations it may be preferable to store the hashed passwords externally and supply them on demand.

If a hash is required, the event fires with an empty string in the *Hash* parameter. In this case, you can choose to supply a value for the hash and stop the component from computing the hash.

The event also fires every time a hash is computed. In this case, the *Hash* parameter contains the value of the computed hash.

*AuthAlgorithm* contains either 1 for HMAC-MD5-96, 2 for HMAC-SHA-96 or 3 for HMAC-192-SHA-256

# InformRequest Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Fired when an InformRequest packet is received.

## Syntax

```text
public event OnInformRequestHandler OnInformRequest;

public delegate void OnInformRequestHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrInformRequestEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrInformRequestEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public int RequestId { get; }
  public int SNMPVersion { get; }
  public string Community { get; }
  public string User { get; }
  public int SecurityLevel { get; }
  public string SourceAddress { get; }
  public int SourcePort { get; }
  public int ErrorIndex { get; set; }
  public int ErrorStatus { get; set; }
  public string ErrorDescription { get; }
  public bool Respond { get; set; }
}
```

## Remarks

For SNMPv3, the *User* parameter shows the user that was supplied with the packet. This parameter *MUST* be used together with the *SecurityLevel* parameter which shows the level of security in the message.

The *SecurityLevel* parameter shows whether the request has been authenticated. If *SecurityLevel* is 0, the request has *NOT* been authenticated (i.e. the packet signature has not been verified). For an authenticated, non encrypted request, *SecurityLevel* is 1. For an authenticated and encrypted request, *SecurityLevel* is 2.

The user in an InformRequest packet (SNMPv3) must be a valid user in the internal authentication cache (see the [AddUser](#adduser-method-snmptrapmgr-component) method and the [CheckEngine](#checkengine-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event for more information). If not, the request is rejected, and a [BadPacket](#badpacket-event-snmptrapmgr-component) event is fired before InformRequest is fired.

The list of variables in the SNMP packet, including optional values and types, is provided through the [Objects](#objects-property-snmptrapmgr-component) collection. Each object is of type [SNMPObject](#snmpobject-type). This type describes the [Oid](#SNMPObject_f_Oid), [ObjectType](#SNMPObject_f_ObjectType), and [Value](#SNMPObject_f_Value) of each SNMP object. These variables must be copied to another location before the event has completed executing, or they may be overridden by other events.

 The *SourceAddress* and *SourcePort* parameters show the address and port of the sender as reported by the TCP/IP stack.

The *MessageId* parameter identifies the received request.

For SNMPv3, the *User* parameter shows the user that was supplied with the packet. This parameter *MUST* be used together with the *SecurityLevel* parameter which shows the level of security in the message.

The *SecurityLevel* parameter shows whether the request has been authenticated. If *SecurityLevel* is 0, the request has *NOT* been authenticated (i.e. the packet signature has not been verified). For an authenticated, non encrypted request, *SecurityLevel* is 1. For an authenticated and encrypted request, *SecurityLevel* is 2.

To send a response, the *Respond* parameter must be set to true. By default, this value is false, which means no response will be sent. The *ErrorStatus* parameter may also be set to a valid SNMP status code (the default value is 0, which represents no error).

The following is a list of valid SNMP status code values:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (noError) | No error. |
| 1 (tooBig) | The response cannot fit in a single SNMP message. |
| 2 (noSuchName) | Variable does not exist. |
| 3 (badValue) | Invalid value or syntax. |
| 4 (readOnly) | Variable is read-only. |
| 5 (genError) | Other error (SNMPv1). |
| 6 (noAccess) | Access denied. |
| 7 (wrongType) | Wrong object type. |
| 8 (wrongLength) | Wrong length. |
| 9 (wrongEncoding) | Wrong encoding. |
| 10 (wrongValue) | Wrong value. |
| 11 (noCreation) | No creation. |
| 12 (inconsistentValue) | Inconsistent value. |
| 13 (resourceUnavailable) | Resource unavailable. |
| 14 (commitFailed) | Commit failed. |
| 15 (undoFailed) | Undo failed. |
| 16 (authorizationError) | Authorization error. |
| 17 (notWritable) | Variable is not writable. |
| 18 (inconsistentName) | Inconsistent name. |

 The *ErrorIndex* parameter indicates the index of the first variable (object) that caused an error. The default value is 0.

Variable indexes start with 0. *ErrorIndex* has no meaning when *ErrorStatus* is 0 (no error).

# PacketTrace Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Fired for every packet sent or received.

## Syntax

```text
public event OnPacketTraceHandler OnPacketTrace;

public delegate void OnPacketTraceHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrPacketTraceEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrPacketTraceEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string Packet { get; }  public byte[] PacketB { get; }
  public int Direction { get; }
  public string PacketAddress { get; }
  public int PacketPort { get; }
}
```

## Remarks

The PacketTrace event shows all the packets sent or received by the component.

*Packet* contains the full contents of the datagram.

*Direction* shows the direction of the packet: 1 for incoming packets, and 2 for outgoing packets.

In the case of an incoming packet, *PacketAddress* and *PacketPort* identify the source of the packet.

In the case of an outgoing packet, *PacketAddress* and *PacketPort* identify the destination of the packet.

# SSLClientAuthentication Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Fired when the client presents its credentials to the server.

## Syntax

```text
public event OnSSLClientAuthenticationHandler OnSSLClientAuthentication;

public delegate void OnSSLClientAuthenticationHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrSSLClientAuthenticationEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrSSLClientAuthenticationEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string RemoteAddress { get; }
  public int RemotePort { get; }
  public string CertEncoded { get; }  public byte[] CertEncodedB { get; }
  public string CertSubject { get; }
  public string CertIssuer { get; }
  public string Status { get; }
  public bool Accept { get; set; }
}
```

## Remarks

This event fires when a client connects to the component and presents a certificate for authentication. The *Accept* parameter is a recommendation on whether to continue or close the connection. This is just a suggestion: application software must use its own logic to determine whether to continue or not.

When *Accept* is False, *Status* shows why the verification failed (otherwise, *Status* contains the string "OK").

*RemoteAddress* is the IP address of the connecting client.

*RemotePort* is the source port of the connecting client.

*CertEncoded* is the base64 encoded certificate presented by the client.

*CertSubject* is the subject of the certificate presented by the client.

*CertIssuer* is the subject of the issuer of the certificate presented by the client.

*Status* is the status of the certificate.

*Accept* defines whether the certificate is accepted.

# SSLStatus Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Shows the progress of the secure connection.

## Syntax

```text
public event OnSSLStatusHandler OnSSLStatus;

public delegate void OnSSLStatusHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrSSLStatusEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrSSLStatusEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public string RemoteAddress { get; }
  public int RemotePort { get; }
  public string Message { get; }
}
```

## Remarks

The event is fired for informational and logging purposes only. It is used to track the progress of the connection.

*RemoteAddress* is the IP address of the remote machine.

*RemotePort* is the port of the remote machine.

*Message* is the log message.

# Trap Event ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

Fired when a SNMP trap packet is received.

## Syntax

```text
public event OnTrapHandler OnTrap;

public delegate void OnTrapHandler(object sender, SNMPTrapMgrTrapEventArgs e);

public class SNMPTrapMgrTrapEventArgs : EventArgs {
  public int RequestId { get; }
  public int SNMPVersion { get; }
  public string Community { get; }
  public string User { get; }
  public int SecurityLevel { get; }
  public string TrapOID { get; }
  public long TimeStamp { get; }
  public string AgentAddress { get; }
  public string SourceAddress { get; }
  public int SourcePort { get; }
}
```

## Remarks

The *TrapOID* and *TimeStamp* parameters contain the Trap OID and TimeStamp. In the case of an SNMPv1 trap, there are two possible scenarios:

First, if the enterprise of the trap is "1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5", *TrapOID* will be a concatenation of TrapEnterprise and GenericTrap + 1. For instance a TrapOID of "1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.5" has a TrapEnterprise of "1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5" and a GenericTrap of "4".

Second, In all other cases *TrapOID* will be a concatenation of the values for TrapEnterprise, GenericTrap, and SpecificTrap, separated by '.'.

For SNMPv2 and above, they are read from the variable-value list (if available).

For SNMPv3, the *User* parameter shows the user that was supplied with the packet. This parameter *MUST* be used together with the *SecurityLevel* parameter which shows the level of security in the message.

The *SecurityLevel* parameter shows whether the request has been authenticated. If *SecurityLevel* is 0, the request has *NOT* been authenticated (i.e. the packet signature has not been verified). For an authenticated, non encrypted request, *SecurityLevel* is 1. For an authenticated and encrypted request, *SecurityLevel* is 2.

The list of variables in the SNMP packet, including optional values and types, is provided through the [Objects](#objects-property-snmptrapmgr-component) collection. Each object is of type [SNMPObject](#snmpobject-type). This type describes the [Oid](#SNMPObject_f_Oid), [ObjectType](#SNMPObject_f_ObjectType), and [Value](#SNMPObject_f_Value) of each SNMP object. These variables must be copied to another location before the event has completed executing, or they may be overridden by other events.

 The *SourceAddress* and *SourcePort* parameters show the address and port of the sender as reported by the TCP/IP stack.

Some parameters are only applicable depending on the SNMPVersion value. The table below shows which parameters are applicable to which SNMP versions.

|  |  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | SNMPv1 | SNMPv2 | SNMPv3 |
| AgentAddress | X |  |  |
| Community | X | X |  |
| RequestId |  | X | X |
| SecurityLevel |  |  | X |
| User |  |  | X |
| SNMPVersion | X | X | X |
| SourceAddress | X | X | X |
| SourcePort | X | X | X |
| TimeStamp | X | X | X |
| TrapOID | X | X | X |

# Config Settings ([SNMPTrapMgr](#snmptrapmgr-component) Component)

 The component accepts one or more of the following *configuration settings*. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the component, access to these *internal properties* is provided through the [Config](#config-method-snmptrapmgr-component) method.

### SNMPTrapMgr Config Settings

**AuthenticationKey**: The key to use for authentication.This setting takes the hex-encoded key for authentication and may be set inside [GetUserPassword](#getuserpassword-event-snmptrapmgr-component).

**CompatibilityMode**: Whether to operate the component in a specific compatibility mode.This setting will cause the component to operate in a manner different than normal so that it is compatible with third-party products and libraries. The following table lists the possible values for this setting:

|  |  |
| --- | --- |
| 0 (default) | Component operates normally for greatest compatibility. |
| 1 | Component uses SNMP4j-compatible encryption (AES192 and AES256). |
| 2 | Component automatically detects whether to use SNMP4j-compatible encryption (AES192 and AES256). Note: This option is only applicable when receiving packets. If you are using [SNMPMgr](SNMPMgr.md#SNMPMgr) or sending secure traps, you will need to select either 0 or 1. |

**ContextEngineId**: Sets the context engine id of the SNMP entity. If set, the context engine id included in the PDU will be set.

**ContextName**: Sets the context name of the SNMP entity. If set, the context name included in the PDU will be set.

**DecryptLogPackets**: Whether to decrypt logged packets.When set to *true* this setting will cause the component to decrypt packets logged in [PacketTrace](#packettrace-event-snmptrapmgr-component). This only applies when using SNMP Version 3. The default is *false*.

**DerivedKeyCacheSize**: The size of the internal cache used to store derived keys.When set to a value greater than *0* the component will cache keys derived from passwords. This can improve performance in some scenarios. This value should be set to twice the number of expected unique passwords (e.g. 20 for 10 passwords). This only applies when using SNMP Version 3.

The cache is enabled by default and the default value is *20*. To disable the cache set the value to *0*. This setting is only applicable when SNMPVersion is set to 3.

**DerivedKeyCacheStatus**: The status of the internal cache used to store derived keys.When queried this setting returns the number of slots occupied in the cache (e.g. *6/20*). This setting only applies when SNMPVersion is set to 3.

**EncryptionKey**: The key to use for encryption.This setting takes the hex-encoded key for encryption and may be set inside [GetUserPassword](#getuserpassword-event-snmptrapmgr-component).

**ForceLocalPort**: Forces the component to bind to a specific port. The default value is True, which makes the component throw an error if [LocalPort](#localport-property-snmptrapmgr-component) is busy. When [ForceLocalPort](#ForceLocalPort) is set to False and the port is busy, the component silently chooses another random port.

**IncomingContextEngineId**: The engine Id of the received packet.This setting holds the engine Id of the received packet. This may be queried at any time, including from within an event, and returns the engine Id of the received packet. This is not needed in most cases, but can be used to store the incoming engine Id to send an asynchronous response later. This value is read-only.

**IncomingContextName**: The context name of the received packet.This setting holds the context name of the received packet. This may be queried at any time, including from within an event, and returns the context name of the received packet. This is not needed in most cases, but can be used to store the incoming context name to send an asynchronous response later. This value is read-only.

**ShowCacheForUser**: Shows the cache entry for a single user.This configuration setting causes the component to call ShowCache internally, and only fire the CacheEntry event for the user specified.

**SourceAddress**: The source address of the received packet.This setting holds the source address of the received packet. This may be queried at any time, including from within an event, and returns the source address of the received packet. This value is read-only.

**SourcePort**: The source port of the received packet.This setting holds the source port of the received packet. This may be queried at any time, including from within an event, and returns the source port of the received packet. This value is read-only.

**SynchronizeEvents**: Controls whether or not events are fired from the main thread when timeout is positive. The default value is True, which makes the component fire events from the main thread when timeout is greater than zero. Note: If your application requires more speed and efficiency, or does not require events to be fired from the main thread, you can set this to False to fire the events from secondary threads. This config is not applicable if timeout is zero, when events will always be fired from secondary threads.

**TimeWindow**: The time window used for SNMPv3 timeliness checking (authentication).The default value is 150 (seconds).

### UDP Config Settings

**CaptureIPPacketInfo**: Used to capture the packet information.If this is set to True, the component will capture the IP packet information.

The default value for this setting is False.

NOTE: This configuration setting is available only in Windows.

**DelayHostResolution**: Whether the hostname is resolved when RemoteHost is set.This configuration setting specifies whether a hostname is resolved immediately when RemoteHost is set. If *true* the component will resolve the hostname and the IP address will be present in the RemoteHost property. If *false*, the hostname is not resolved until needed by the component when a method to connect or send data is called. If desired, ResolveRemoteHost may be called to manually resolve the value in RemoteHost at any time.

The default value is *false* for the default library and *true* for the async library.

**DestinationAddress**: Used to get the destination address from the packet information.If [CaptureIPPacketInfo](#CaptureIPPacketInfo) is set to True, then this will be populated with the packet's destination address when a packet is received. This information will be accessible in the DataIn event.

NOTE: This configuration setting is available only in Windows.

**DontFragment**: Used to set the Don't Fragment flag of outgoing packets.When set to True, packets sent by the component will have the Don't Fragment flag set. The default value is False.

**LocalHost**: The name of the local host through which connections are initiated or accepted. The [LocalHost](#localhost-property-snmptrapmgr-component) setting contains the name of the local host as obtained by the *gethostname()* system call, or if the user has assigned an IP address, the value of that address.

In multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface), setting LocalHost to the value of an interface will make the component initiate connections (or accept in the case of server components) only through that interface.

If the component is connected, the [LocalHost](#localhost-property-snmptrapmgr-component) setting shows the IP address of the interface through which the connection is made in internet dotted format (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). In most cases, this is the address of the local host, except for multihomed hosts (machines with more than one IP interface).

**LocalPort**: The port in the local host where the component binds. This configuration setting must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the component to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine.

Setting this to 0 (default) enables the system to choose a port at random. The chosen port will be shown by [LocalPort](#localport-property-snmptrapmgr-component) after the connection is established.

[LocalPort](#localport-property-snmptrapmgr-component) cannot be changed once a connection is made. Any attempt to set this when a connection is active will generate an error.

This configuration setting is useful when trying to connect to services that require a trusted port on the client side. An example is the remote shell (rsh) service in UNIX systems.

**MaxPacketSize**: The maximum length of the packets that can be received.This configuration setting specifies the maximum size of the datagrams that the component will accept without truncation.

**QOSDSCPValue**: Used to specify an arbitrary QOS/DSCP setting (optional).[UseConnection](#UseConnection) must be True to use this configuration setting. This option allows you to specify an arbitrary DSCP value between 0 and 63. The default is 0. When set to the default value, the component will not set a DSCP value.

NOTE: This configuration setting uses the qWAVE API and is available only on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, and later.

**QOSTrafficType**: Used to specify QOS/DSCP settings (optional).[UseConnection](#UseConnection) must be True to use this setting. You may specify either the text or integer values: BestEffort (0), Background (1), ExcellentEffort (2), AudioVideo (3), Voice (4), and Control (5).

NOTE: This configuration setting uses the qWAVE API and is available only on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 or above.

NOTE: QOSTrafficType must be set before setting [Active](#active-property-snmptrapmgr-component) to True.

**ShareLocalPort**: If set to True, allows more than one instance of the component to be active on the same local port.This option must be set before the component is activated through the [Active](#active-property-snmptrapmgr-component) property or it will have no effect.

The default value for this setting is False.

**UseConnection**: Determines whether to use a connected socket.[UseConnection](#UseConnection) specifies whether or not the component should use a connected socket. The connection is defined as an association in between the local address/port and the remote address/port. As such, this is not a connection in the traditional Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) sense. It means only that the component will send and receive data to and from the specified destination.

The default value for this setting is False.

**UseIPv6**: Whether or not to use IPv6.By default, the component expects an IPv4 address for local and remote host properties, and it will create an IPv4 socket. To use IPv6 instead, set this to True.

### Socket Config Settings

**AbsoluteTimeout**: Determines whether timeouts are inactivity timeouts or absolute timeouts.If [AbsoluteTimeout](#AbsoluteTimeout) is set to True, any method that does not complete within Timeout seconds will be aborted. By default, *AbsoluteTimeout* is False, and the timeout is an inactivity timeout.

NOTE: This option is not valid for User Datagram Protocol (UDP) ports.

**FirewallData**: Used to send extra data to the firewall.When the firewall is a tunneling proxy, use this property to send custom (additional) headers to the firewall (e.g., headers for custom authentication schemes).

**InBufferSize**: The size in bytes of the incoming queue of the socket.This is the size of an internal queue in the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be receiving. In some cases, increasing the value of the *InBufferSize* setting can provide significant improvements in performance.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the component is activated the *InBufferSize* reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

**OutBufferSize**: The size in bytes of the outgoing queue of the socket.This is the size of an internal queue in the TCP/IP stack. You can increase or decrease its size depending on the amount of data that you will be sending. In some cases, increasing the value of the *OutBufferSize* setting can provide significant improvements in performance.

Some TCP/IP implementations do not support variable buffer sizes. If that is the case, when the component is activated the *OutBufferSize* reverts to its defined size. The same happens if you attempt to make it too large or too small.

### Base Config Settings

**BuildInfo**: Information about the product's build.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the product's build.

**GUIAvailable**: Whether or not a message loop is available for processing events.In a GUI-based application, long-running blocking operations may cause the application to stop responding to input until the operation returns. The component will attempt to discover whether or not the application has a message loop and, if one is discovered, it will process events in that message loop during any such blocking operation.

In some non-GUI applications, an invalid message loop may be discovered that will result in errant behavior. In these cases, setting [GUIAvailable](#GUIAvailable) to *false* will ensure that the component does not attempt to process external events.

**LicenseInfo**: Information about the current license.When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a component is using. It will return the following information:

- Product: The product the license is for.
- Product Key: The key the license was generated from.
- License Source: Where the license was found (e.g., RuntimeLicense, License File).
- License Type: The type of license installed (e.g., Royalty Free, Single Server).
- Last Valid Build: The last valid build number for which the license will work.

**MaskSensitiveData**: Whether sensitive data is masked in log messages.In certain circumstances it may be beneficial to mask sensitive data, like passwords, in log messages. Set this to *true* to mask sensitive data. The default is *true*.

**UseInternalSecurityAPI**: Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation. When set to *false*, the component will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable. In this case, calls to unmanaged code will be made. In certain environments, this is not desirable. To use a completely managed security implementation, set this setting to *true*.

Setting this configuration setting to *true* tells the component to use the internal implementation instead of using the system security libraries.

 On Windows, this setting is set to *false* by default. On Linux/macOS, this setting is set to *true* by default.

NOTE: This setting is static. The value set is applicable to all components used in the application.

When this value is set, the product's system dynamic link library (DLL) is no longer required as a reference, as all unmanaged code is stored in that file.
