Remarks

The SNMPAgent class implements a UDP-based standard SNMP Agent as specified in the SNMP RFCs. The class supports SNMP v1, v2c, and v3.

SNMP over DTLS is also supported when SSLEnabled is set to True. When acting as a client, the SSLServerAuthentication event allows you to check the server identity and other security attributes. The SSLStatus event provides information about the DTLS handshake. Additional SSL-related settings are also supported through the Config method. When acting as a server, the SSLCert properties are used to select a certificate for the server. When client authentication is required, the SSLAuthenticateClients property can be set to True and the SSLClientAuthentication event can be used to examine client credentials.

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

The class is activated/deactivated by calling the Activate or Deactivate method. These methods enable or disable sending and receiving. The activation status can be found in the Active property.

The class operates asynchronously. Requests are received through events such as GetRequest, GetBulkRequest, GetNextRequest, etc. and the corresponding responses are automatically sent when the events return. Traps are sent through the SendTrap method.

SNMPv3 USM security passwords are requested through the GetUserPassword 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 SendSecureTrap method is used to send authenticated (secure) SNMPv3 traps.

The AddUser, RemoveUser, ShowCache, and ClearCache methods are used to manage an internal authentication cache. This internal cache can be used as an alternative to the GetUserPassword event, automatically checking the cache against the security parameters provided in the request signature.

SNMP OIDs, types, and values are provided in the Objects collection of SNMP objects for both sent and received packets.

Other packet information is provided through corresponding event parameters, such as Community, or RequestId.

AcceptData Property (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Enables or disables data reception.

Object Oriented Interface


public function getAcceptData();


public function setAcceptData($value);

Procedural Interface


ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_get($res, 1 );


ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_set($res, 1, $value );

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 not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

Active Property (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Indicates whether the class is active.

Object Oriented Interface


public function getActive();


public function setActive($value);

ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_set($res, 2, $value );

Default Value

false

Remarks

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

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

Use the Activate and Deactivate methods to control whether the class is active.

This property is not available at design time.

Data Type

Boolean

LocalEngineId Property (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

The Engine Id of the SNMP Agent.

Object Oriented Interface


public function getLocalEngineId();


public function setLocalEngineId($value);

Procedural Interface


ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_get($res, 3 );


ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_set($res, 3, $value );

Default Value

''

Remarks

This property is only used for SNMPv3 packets (when SNMPVersion is 3).

Data Type

Binary String

LocalHost Property (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

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

Object Oriented Interface


public function getLocalHost();


public function setLocalHost($value);

Procedural Interface


ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_get($res, 4 );


ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_set($res, 4, $value );

Default Value

''

Remarks

The LocalHost 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 class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) 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 class 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.

Data Type

String

LocalPort Property (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

The port in the local host where the class listens.

Object Oriented Interface


public function getLocalPort();


public function setLocalPort($value);

Procedural Interface


ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_get($res, 5 );


ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_set($res, 5, $value );

Default Value

161

Remarks

The LocalPort property must be set before the class is activated (Active is set to True). It instructs the class to bind to a specific port (or communication endpoint) in the local machine (default 161).

You may also set LocalPort to 0. This allows the TCP/IP stack to choose a port at random. The value chosen is provided via the LocalPort property after the class is activated through the Active property.

LocalPort cannot be changed once the class is Active. Any attempt to set the LocalPort property when the class is Active will generate an error.

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

To use a security key, the necessary data must first be collected using the CertMgr class. The ListStoreCertificates method may be called after setting CertStoreType to cstPKCS11, CertStorePassword to the PIN, and CertStore to the full path of the PKCS#11 DLL. The certificate information returned in the CertList event's CertEncoded parameter may be saved for later use.

When using a certificate, pass the previously saved security key information as the SSLAcceptServerCertStore and set SSLAcceptServerCertStorePassword to the PIN.

Code Example. SSH Authentication with Security Key: certmgr.CertStoreType = CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11; certmgr.OnCertList += (s, e) => { secKeyBlob = e.CertEncoded; }; certmgr.CertStore = @"C:\Program Files\OpenSC Project\OpenSC\pkcs11\opensc-pkcs11.dll"; certmgr.CertStorePassword = "123456"; //PIN certmgr.ListStoreCertificates(); sftp.SSHCert = new Certificate(CertStoreTypes.cstPKCS11, secKeyBlob, "123456", "*"); sftp.SSHUser = "test"; sftp.SSHLogon("myhost", 22);

Depending upon the value of the SNMPVersion property, the packet is constructed as an SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, or SNMPv3 (unauthenticated) response PDU. To send authenticated or encrypted SNMPv3 responses, use SendSecureResponse

The RemoteHost and RemotePort parameters are used to determine where the response is to be sent. The object identifiers, types, and values for the request are taken from the Objects collection. The RequestId, Community, ErrorStatus, and ErrorIndex parameters are used to specify other properties of the response.

SendSecureResponse Method (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Sends an authenticated and/or encrypted SNMPv3 response.

Object Oriented Interface

public function doSendSecureResponse($remotehost, $remoteport, $requestid, $messageid, $errorstatus, $errorindex, $user, $authenticationprotocol, $authenticationpassword, $encryptionalgorithm, $encryptionpassword);

Object Oriented Interface

public function doSendTrap($remotehost, $trapoid);

Procedural Interface

ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_do_sendtrap($res, $remotehost, $trapoid);

Remarks

Depending upon the value of the SNMPVersion property, the packet is constructed as an SNMPv1 or SNMPv2 Trap PDU. The following configuration settings provide more control about how traps are generated: TrapPort, TrapAgentAddress, TrapCommunity, TrapEnterprise. The SysUpTime property provides the trap timestamp.

SendTrap sends an unauthenticated trap. The SendSecureTrap method is used to send authenticated SNMPv3 traps.

If any values are provided in the Objects collection, they are sent unchanged. In the case of an SNMPv2 or SNMPv3 Trap, if Objects has a count that is equal to 0, the following values are set: sysUpTime.0 equal to SysUpTime and snmpTrapOID.0 equal to TrapOID.

For SNMPv2 and SNMPv3 Traps, TrapOID must contain the full OID of the Trap. For SNMPv1, TrapOID must be a string of the form "generic.specific" where generic and specific are numeric values providing the Trap Generic Type and Specific Type.

For SNMPv1, TrapOID must be of the form "GenericTrap.SpecificTrap". These values are sent in the PDU header. TrapAgentAddress and TrapEnterprise are taken from the corresponding configuration settings.

Additionally, the following symbolic values are recognized and translated as follows:

Trap Name OID (SNMPv2 and above) SNMPv1 GenericType
coldStart 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.1 0
warmStart 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.2 1

Remarks

This is only available for SNMP versions 2 and 3.

The list of variables in the SNMP packet, including optional values and types, is provided through the Objects collection. Each object is of type SNMPObject. This type describes the ObjId, ObjType, and ObjValue 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).

A GetBulkRequest is very similar to a GetNextRequest, the difference is that Getbulk performs a continuous GetNext operation based on the MaxRepitions value. The NonRepeaters value will determine the number of Objects for which a simple GetNext operation should be performed. For the remaining variables, a continuous GetNext operation is performed based on the MaxRepitions value.

So if you send a request containing X objects, the agent will perform N simple GetNext operations and M continuous GetNext operations X - N times. With X being the number of objects received, N being the number of NonRepeaters, and M being the number of MaxRepitions. Thus the SNMPMgr is expecting to receive N + M x (X - N) objects, assuming that each object has M successors.

GetNextRequest Event (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Fired when a GetNextRequest packet is received.

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).

GetUserPassword Event (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Retrieves a password associated with a user.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireGetUserPassword($param);

Procedural Interface

ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_register_callback($res, 10, array($this, 'fireGetUserPassword'));

Parameter List

 'passwordtype'
'user'
'password'
'algorithm'

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 (if any) 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:

ValueAuthentication Algorithm
0 (default)Any
1MD5
2SHA1
3SHA256
4SHA512
If the PasswordType parameter is 2 (encryption is used), the Algorithm parameter must also be set. Possible values are:
ValueEncryption Algorithm
1 (default)DES
2AES
33DES
4AES192
5AES256

If the password does not match the signature in the request, a BadPacket event will be fired, at which point you can decide whether to report the error to the client (see the description of the BadPacket 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 event being fired, at which point you can decide whether to report the error to the client or not.

GetUserSecurityLevel Event (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Sets the security level for an incoming packet.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireGetUserSecurityLevel($param);

Procedural Interface

ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_register_callback($res, 11, array($this, 'fireGetUserSecurityLevel'));

Parameter List

 'user'
'engineid'
'securitylevel'

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:

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

HashPassword Event (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Fired before and after a password is hashed.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireHashPassword($param);

Procedural Interface

ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_register_callback($res, 12, array($this, 'fireHashPassword'));

Parameter List

 'password'
'authalgorithm'
'hash'

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 class 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

PacketTrace Event (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Fired for every packet sent or received.

Object Oriented Interface

public function firePacketTrace($param);

Procedural Interface

ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_register_callback($res, 13, array($this, 'firePacketTrace'));

Parameter List

 'packet'
'direction'
'packetaddress'
'packetport'

Remarks

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

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.

ReadyToSend Event (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Fired when the class is ready to send data.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireReadyToSend($param);

Procedural Interface

ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_register_callback($res, 14, array($this, 'fireReadyToSend'));

Parameter List


Remarks

The ReadyToSend event indicates that the underlying TCP/IP subsystem is ready to accept data after a failed DataToSend(TBD. DataToSend is removed).

Report Event (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Fired when a Report packet is received.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireReport($param);

Procedural Interface

ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_register_callback($res, 15, array($this, 'fireReport'));

Parameter List

 'requestid'
'snmpversion'
'community'
'user'
'securitylevel'
'sourceaddress'
'sourceport'
'errorindex'
'errorstatus'
'errordescription'

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 list of variables in the SNMP packet, including optional values and types, is provided through the Objects collection. Each object is of type SNMPObject. This type describes the ObjId, ObjType, and ObjValue 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.

SetRequest Event (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Fired when a SetRequest packet is received.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireSetRequest($param);

Procedural Interface

ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_register_callback($res, 16, array($this, 'fireSetRequest'));

Parameter List

 'requestid'
'messageid'
'snmpversion'
'community'
'user'
'securitylevel'
'sourceaddress'
'sourceport'
'errorindex'
'errorstatus'
'errordescription'
'respond'

Remarks

The list of variables in the SNMP packet, including optional values and types, is provided through the Objects collection. Each object is of type SNMPObject. This type describes the ObjId, ObjType, and ObjValue 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.

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).

SSLClientAuthentication Event (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Fired when the client presents its credentials to the server.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireSSLClientAuthentication($param);

Procedural Interface

ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_register_callback($res, 17, array($this, 'fireSSLClientAuthentication'));

Parameter List

 'remoteaddress'
'remoteport'
'certencoded'
'certsubject'
'certissuer'
'status'
'accept'

Remarks

This event fires when a client connects to the class 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 stauts of the certificate.

Accept defines whether the certificate is accepted.

SSLServerAuthentication Event (IPWorksSNMP_SNMPAgent Class)

Fires when connecting to the server.

Object Oriented Interface

public function fireSSLServerAuthentication($param);

ipworkssnmp_snmpagent_register_callback($res, 18, array($this, 'fireSSLServerAuthentication'));

Parameter List

 'remoteaddress'
'remoteport'
'certencoded'
'certsubject'
'certissuer'
'status'
'accept'

Remarks

This event is where the client can decide whether to continue with the connection process or not. 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"). If it is decided to continue, you can override and accept the certificate by setting the Accept parameter to True.

RemoteAddress is the IP address of the server.

RemotePort is the source port of the server.

CertEncoded is the base64 encoded certificate presented by the server.

CertSubject is the subject of the certificate presented by the server.

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.

Config Settings (SNMPAgent Class)

The class 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 class, access to these internal properties is provided through the Config method.

SNMPAgent Config Settings

AuthenticationKey:   The key to use for authentication.

This setting takes the hex-encoded key for authentication and may be set before calling SendSecureTrap.

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.
1Component uses SNMP4j-compatible encryption (AES192 and AES256).
2Component 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 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.

DataToSend:   Sends a raw packet.

This should be set to the hexadecimal representation of a packet. When set the represented packet is sent.

DecryptLogPackets:   Whether to decrypt logged packets.

When set to true this setting will cause the class to decrypt packets logged in PacketTrace. This only applies when using SNMP Version 3. The default is false.

EncryptionKey:   The key to use for encryption.

This setting takes the hex-encoded key for encryption and may be set before calling SendSecureTrap.

ForceLocalPort:   Forces the class to bind to a specific port.

The default value is True, which makes the class throw an error if LocalPort is busy. When ForceLocalPort is set to False and the port is busy, the class silently chooses another random port.

IgnoreDiscoveryRequestType:   Treats other request types as discovery requests.

When true tells the class to treat any request with an empty EngineID and varBindList as a discovery request. The default is false.

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.

MsgMaxSize:   The maximum supported message size.

This setting specifies the maximum supported message size in bytes. This is only applicable when SNMPVersion is set to 3. This corresponds to the "msgMaxSize" field in the request.

RespondFromDestIP:   Whether to respond from the IP address that the request was sent to.

By default the class will always respond from the interface defined by LocalHost. In the case where aliases have been defined on the system, incoming traffic may have a different value for the destination. This setting tells the class to respond using a source address that matches the destination address of the received packet. This setting should only be set to True if there is a specific reason to do so.

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.

TimeWindow:   The time window used for SNMPv3 timeliness checking (authentication).

The default value is 150 (seconds).

TrapAgentAddress:   The address of the object generating the trap.

This setting is used to specify the agent-addr field when sending V1 Traps. The default value is the address of the localhost. This value must be an IPv4 address.

TrapCommunity:   The value of the Community parameter for SNMP traps.

Typical values are "public" or "private". The default value is "public".

TrapEnterprise:   The type of the object generating the trap.

This setting specifies the type of object generating the SNMP Trap. The default value is "1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5" (i.e. SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTraps).

TrapPort:   The port where SNMP traps are sent.

The TrapPort is the UDP port where SNMP traps are sent.

A valid port number (a value between 1 and 65535) is required. The default value is 162.

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 class 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.

DestinationAddress:   Used to get the destination address from the packet information.

If 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 class 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 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 class initiate connections (or accept in the case of server classs) only through that interface.

If the class is connected, the LocalHost 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 class binds.

This configuration setting must be set before a connection is attempted. It instructs the class 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 after the connection is established.

LocalPort 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 class will accept without truncation.

QOSDSCPValue:   Used to specify an arbitrary QOS/DSCP setting (optional).

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 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 to True.

ShareLocalPort:   If set to True, allows more than one instance of the class to be active on the same local port.

This option must be set before the class is activated through the Active property or it will have no effect.

The default value for this setting is False.

SourceIPAddress:   Used to set the source IP address used when sending a packet.

This configuration setting can be used to override the source IP address when sending a packet.

Note: This configuration setting is available only in Windows and requires that the winpcap library be installed (or npcap with winpcap compatibility).

SourceMacAddress:   Used to set the source MAC address used when sending a packet.

This configuration setting can be used to override the source MAC address when sending a packet.

Note: This configuration setting is available only in Windows and requires that the winpcap library be installed (or npcap with winpcap compatibility).

UseConnection:   Determines whether to use a connected socket.

UseConnection specifies whether or not the class 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 class 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 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 class 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 class 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.

CodePage:   The system code page used for Unicode to Multibyte translations.

The default code page is Unicode UTF-8 (65001).

LicenseInfo:   Information about the current license.

When queried, this setting will return a string containing information about the license this instance of a class 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.

This setting only works on these classes: AS3Receiver, AS3Sender, Atom, Client(3DS), FTP, FTPServer, IMAP, OFTPClient, SSHClient, SCP, Server(3DS), Sexec, SFTP, SFTPServer, SSHServer, TCPClient, TCPServer.

ProcessIdleEvents:   Whether the class uses its internal event loop to process events when the main thread is idle.

If set to False, the class will not fire internal idle events. Set this to False to use the class in a background thread on Mac OS. By default, this setting is True.

SelectWaitMillis:   The length of time in milliseconds the class will wait when DoEvents is called if there are no events to process.

If there are no events to process when DoEvents is called, the class will wait for the amount of time specified here before returning. The default value is 20.

UseInternalSecurityAPI:   Whether or not to use the system security libraries or an internal implementation.

When set to false, the class will use the system security libraries by default to perform cryptographic functions where applicable.

Setting this configuration setting to true tells the class 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.

To use the system security libraries for Linux, OpenSSL support must be enabled. For more information on how to enable OpenSSL, please refer to the OpenSSL Notes section.
