+**trapd** supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
+standard. It is a well documented and pervasive protocol,
+used in all networks worldwide.
+
+As an API offering, the only way to interact with **trapd** is
+to send traps that conform to the industry standard specification
+(RFC1215 - available at https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1215 ) to a
+running instance. To accomplish this, you may:
+
+1. Configure SNMP agents to send native traps to a SNMPTRAP instance.
+ In SNMP agent configurations, this is usually accomplished by
+ setting the "trap target" or "snmp manager" to the IP address
+ of the running VM/container hosting SNMPTRAP.
+
+2. Simulate a SNMP trap using various freely available utilities. Two
+ examples are provided below, *be sure to change the target
+ ("localhost") and port ("162") to applicable values in your
+ environment.*
+
+NetSNMP snmptrap
+----------------
+
+One way to simulate an arriving SNMP trap is to use the Net-SNMP utility/command snmptrap.
+This command can send V1, V2c or V3 traps to a manager based on the parameters provided.
+
+The example below sends a SNMP V1 trap to the specified host. Prior to running this command, export
+the values of *to_ip_address* (set it to the IP of the VM hosting the ONAP trapd container) and *to_port* (typically
+set to "162"):
+
+ ``export to_ip_address=192.168.1.1``
+
+ ``export to_port=162``
+
+Then run the Net-SNMP command/utility:
+
+ ``snmptrap -d -v 1 -c not_public ${to_ip_address}:${to_portt} .1.3.6.1.4.1.99999 localhost 6 1 '55' .1.11.12.13.14.15 s "test trap"``
+
+.. note::
+
+ This will display some "read_config_store open failure" errors;
+ they can be ignored, the trap has successfully been sent to the
+ specified destination.
+
+python using pysnmp
+-------------------
+
+Another way to simulate an arriving SNMP trap is to send one with the python *pysnmp* module. (Note that this
+is the same module that ONAP trapd is based on).
+
+To do this, create a python script called "send_trap.py" with the following contents. You'll need to change the
+target (from "localhost" to whatever the destination IP/hostname of the trap receiver is) before saving:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+ from pysnmp.hlapi import *
+ from pysnmp import debug
+
+ # debug.setLogger(debug.Debug('msgproc'))
+
+ errorIndication, errorStatus, errorIndex, varbinds = next(sendNotification(SnmpEngine(),
+ CommunityData('not_public'),
+ UdpTransportTarget(('localhost', 162)),
+ ContextData(),
+ 'trap',
+ [ObjectType(ObjectIdentity('.1.3.6.1.4.1.999.1'), OctetString('test trap - ignore')),
+ ObjectType(ObjectIdentity('.1.3.6.1.4.1.999.2'), OctetString('ONAP pytest trap'))])
+ )
+
+ if errorIndication:
+ print(errorIndication)
+ else:
+ print("successfully sent trap")
+
+To run the pysnmp example:
+
+ ``python ./send_trap.py``
