Yes.

Bensen> /usr/local/bin/scotty
Bensen> snmp session -address 129.83.66.24 -community public
Bensen> snmp0 trap coldStart {{sysDescr.0 "TstTrap"}}

Bensen> Are these proper commands to be used to send a trap to other

The commands are OK, but the parameters most likely not. See the
snmp(n) man page. It gives the following example:

set port [$s cget -port]
$s configure -port 162
$s trap coldStart [list [list sysDescr.0 "Fridge"]]
$s configure -port $port

It is important to send the trap to port 162 and not to the default
port 161.
