<p>The <strong>mkDPItrap()</strong> function makes a DPI trap packet and
returns a pointer to the packet.</p>
<br>
<!-- Please NOTE: DO NOT DELETE THIS SECTION if this API has no authorities and locks. -->
<!-- Instead, use the commented out coding below to indicate NONE. -->
<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<!-- Use this if there are no authorities and locks. -->
<p>None.</p>
<br>
<h3>Parameters</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>generic</strong></dt>
<dd>(Input) The generic trap type. The range of this value is 0 through 6,
where 6 (enterpriseSpecific) is the type that is probably used most by DPI
subagent programmers. The values 0 through 5 are well-defined standard SNMP
traps.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong>specific</strong></dt>
<dd>(Input) The (enterprise) specific trap type. This can be any value that is
valid for the Management Information Base (MIB) subtrees that the subagent
implements.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong>packet_p</strong></dt>
<dd>(Input) A pointer to a chain of snmp_dpi_set_structures that represents the
varbinds to be passed with the trap. This partial structure will be freed by
the mkDPItrap() function; therefore, you cannot refer to it anymore on
completion of the call. A NULL pointer means that there are no varbinds to be
included in the trap.<br>
<br>
</dd>
<dt><strong>enterprise_p</strong></dt>
<dd>(Input) A pointer to a NULL-terminated character string that represents the
enterprise ID (OBJECT IDENTIFIER) for which this trap is defined. A NULL
pointer can be used. In this case, the subagent Identifier as passed in the DPI
OPEN packet will be used when the agent receives the DPI TRAP packet.
<p><strong>Note</strong>: This OID must not end in a period (.).</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Return Value</h3>
<table cellpadding="5">
<!-- cols="10 90" -->
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="top"><em>value</em></td>
<td align="left" valign="top">The value returned is a pointer to the DPI
packet.
<p>If successful, then a pointer to a static DPI packet buffer is returned. The
first 2 bytes of the buffer (in network byte order) contain the length of the
remaining packet. The <strong>DPI_PACKET_LEN()</strong> function can be used to
calculate the total length of the DPI packet.</p>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="left" valign="top"><em>NULL</em></td>
<td align="left" valign="top">If unsuccessful, then a NULL pointer is
returned.</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>Be aware that the static buffer for the DPI packet is shared by other
mkDPI<em>xxxx</em>() functions that create a serialized DPI packet.</p>

Protocol</a> <img src="wbpdf.gif" alt="Link to PDF"> book.</p>
<br>
<h3>Usage Notes</h3>
<p>The <strong>mkDPItrap()</strong> function is used at the subagent side to
prepare a DPI TRAP packet. The resulting packet can be sent to the SNMP
agent.</p>
<p>Unnecessary free operations may result in an MCH6902 (type 2). If this
occurs, remove the call to <strong>fDPIset()</strong>.</p>
