Send an SNMP trap

The ctx parameter is the context containing objects from the callout, vars is a table containing script variables and params is a table containing parameters to be passed to this routine.

Defined parameters for params are:

• type specifies the data type of the payload. Can be one of "string", "counter", "gauge" or "ip"

• payload the data to be sent with the trap. For "string" data, this must be a string. For "ip" data, this must be a string rendition of an IPv4 address. For "counter" and "gauge" types, it must be numeric.

• address the trap server address; an IPv4 address string.

• port the port number of the trap server

• community the community for authorization purposes with the trap daemon

• mib the mib for the trap. If not specified, defaults to the Ecelerity enterprise MIB ("1.3.6.1.4.1.19552.1.4.7")

• trapvarmib the Object Identifier (OID) to use for the trap variable. If unspecified, defaults to "1.3.6.1.4.1.19552.1.4.1.0".

• throttle if non-zero, limits sending to one trap every "throttle" seconds.
