Using the DPISAMPL program

The DPISAMPL program accepts the following arguments:

?

Explains the usage.

-d n

Sets the debug at level n. The range is from 0 (for no messages) to 4 (for the most verbose). The default is 0. If a number greater than 4 is specified, tracing is set to level 4.

-trap gtype stype data

Generates a trap of the generic type gtype, of the specific type stype, and pass data as an additional value for the variable dpiSample.stype.0. The values for gtype are from 0 through 5. The values for stype indicate how data is interpreted. The following values are valid for stype:

1: number
2: octet string
3: object ID
4: empty (ignored)
5: internet address
6: counter
7: gauge
8: time ticks
9: display string
10: octet string

-std_traps

Generates or simulates the standard SNMP traps, which are the generic types 0 through 5. This includes a link down trap.

-ent_traps

Generates extended enterprise-specific traps, which are specific types 1 through 9, using the internal dpiSample variables.

ent_trapse

Generates extended enterprise-specific traps, which are specific types 11 through 19.

-all_traps

Generates std_traps, ent_traps, and ent_trapse.

-iucv

Uses an AF_IUCV socket to connect to the SNMP agent. This is the default.

Note: Although the IUCV API is no longer supported, use of the IUCV interaddress space communication mechanism is supported.

-u agent_userid

Specifies the user ID where the SNMP agent is running. The default is SNMPD.

-inet

Uses an AF_INET socket to connect to the SNMP agent.

agent_hostname

Specifies the host name of the system where an SNMP DPI-capable agent is running. The default is localhost.

Note: The localhost value is not defined by default on z/OS®. Ensure localhost is defined to the name server or in the host name resolution file as the local IP address if the agent_hostname parameter is not explicitly specified.

community_name

Specifies the community name, which is required to get the dpiPort. The default is public.
