SNMP SendInform
Send SNMP INFORM with acknowledgment
Sends an SNMP v2c/v3 INFORM to the target host: port and waits for acknowledgment. Renders properties before sending; defaults to localhost: 162, version v2c, community public, 1500 ms timeout, and one retry. v1/v2c use plaintext communities—prefer v3 when authentication or privacy is required.
