MIB OID Translation

In my experience, tcp-replay is only useful if you rewrite the ethernet and ip headers. Have a look at what the destination IP address and mac address is of the snmp trap packets and compare that with the interface you expect to capture on.

  1. See what you've got:
 sudo tcpdump -qns 0  -r traps.pcap
  1. Rewrite the source and destination mac addresses , and the destination MAC (in this case, it's my macbooks en3 interface)
 tcprewrite --infile=traps.pcap --outfile=rewritten.pcap -D 0.0.0.0/0:192.168.0.26 -S 0.0.0.0/0:192.168.0.2 --enet-dmac=ac:87:a3:35:cf:84
  1. Fix checksums
 tcprewrite --infile=rewritten.pcap --outfile=final.pcap --fixcsum
  1. Run the sequence:
 tcpreplay --intf1=eth0 final.pcap

or select some packets if you like

 editcap -r final.pcap first-ten.pcap 1-10

Seems like a lot of unnecessary steps for such a simple task and there's probably some better way to do it, but this one works for me. BTW in my setup I am running the replay from a secondary host on the same network (192.168.0.2) with a destination of my macbook (192.168.0.26). There's probably a way to do it using loopback, but I couldn't find it.
