There are a number of snmptrap commands available, so syntax may not be the same. I have included examples for the most common one but I would suggest using awtrap which I have included at the end of this post...
Send an SNMP TRAP message to a host
Syntax:
snmptrap [-d] -v 1 host community trap_type
specific_type device_description
[-a agent_addr]
snmptrap [-d] [-v 2] host noAuth trap_type
specific_type device_description
[-a agent_addr]
snmptrap [-d] [-v 2] host srcparty dstparty
context trap_type specific_type
device_description [-a agent_addr]
Options:
-a agent_addr
Change the address that the trap reports it's being sent from. By default, snmptrap uses the sending host's address.
-d
Dump the output packet.
-v 1|2
SNMP version (default is 2).
community
The community name for the transaction with the remote system.
context
The collection of object resources available to the dstparty.
device_description
A textual description of the device sending this trap. The description is used as the value of a system.sysDescr.0 variable.
dstparty
The name of the party performing the action.
host
An Internet address specified in dot notation or a host name.
srcparty
The name of the party requesting an action.
specific_type
An integer that specifies user-defined additional information about trap_type.
trap_type
An integer that specifies the type of trap message being sent. Trap types are defined in the table below.
If Unicenter Agents are installed on the server you want to send a trap from, use awtrap:
awtrap -h 1.2.3.4 66 1.2.3.4.5 -s "MY SNMP TRAP: Insert Your Real Message Here"
If agents are not installed you will probably need a third party trap generator, Try these open source utilities:
