The SNMP Set Adapter enables you to send SNMP information. The SNMP is an Internet-standard protocol for managing devices on IP networks.
When the Sybase CEP Engine sends a message to the Set adapter, the only column present is a string.
A Protocol Data Unit is created and the adapter sends the contents of the message to the target OID.

These properties determine which SNMP objects send or receive the data. The schema of the stream depends on the device that you are getting information for. To determine the fields needed in the stream schema, you may need to look at the Management Information Base (MIB) that describes the device.
The OIDs can be in either of two forms: symbolic or numeric. Numeric OIDs contain embedded period characters (".") as part of the OID. If more than one OID is specified, the OIDs must be separated by a blank, tab, or newline.
