Notification over multiple network protocols
============================================

Send SNMP INFORM notifications to multiple Managers over different
network protocols:

* SNMPv2c

* with community name 'public'

* over IPv4/UDP and UDP/IPv6

* send TRAP notification

* to two Managers through different network transports

* with TRAP ID 'coldStart' specified as an OID

* include managed objects information: 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 = 'Example
  Notificator' 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 = 'Notificator Example'

Functionally similar to:

   $ snmptrap -v2c -c public udp:104.236.166.95 0 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.1 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 s 'Example notification' 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 s 'Notificator Example'
   $ snmptrap -v2c -c public udp6:[::1] 0 1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.1 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0 s 'Example notification' 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.5.0 s 'Notificator Example'

Send packet from specific network interface/port
================================================

Send SNMP notification using the following options:

* SNMPv1

* with community name 'public'

* over IPv4/UDP

* to a Manager at 104.236.166.95 UDP port 162

* from local address 0.0.0.0, UDP port 61024

* send TRAP notification

* with TRAP ID 'coldStart' specified as an OID

Functionally similar to:

   # Setup transport endpoint and bind it with security settings yielding

   # used to originate packets from particular local IP:port
