Alerting

Has anyone built a SNMP trap and clear-trap integration?

For those who have done some SNMP trap integrations with other monitoring tools, have you solved the issue of sending 'clear traps' when the condition is no longer met? For example, I have created a custom action that will send an SNMP trap to another one of my monitoring tools using trapgen. The integration works great, the only issue is that I need a way to send a clear trap for that alert when the condition is no longer met so that I dont have stale alarms in my monitoring tools.

Wondering if anyone has done that yet?

All depends on your SNMP MIB. If you're using linkDown/linkUp for example, you just send linkUp trap to clear the linkDown trap.

Here's a MA i created but could use additional input on how to improve it: https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/3291/
