About the Snmp Trap Manager view

The SNMP Trap Manager view is the default view on the Snmp Alarm Device Extension. This view provides a summary view of data and allow you to discover, compile, display, and store traps from MIB files for an SnmpDevice.

You can use the controls along the bottom of the view to work with traps. Use the Add and Match buttons to move “discovered” traps from the top (Discovered) pane to the lower (Database) pane. Use the New button to create new trap types and the New button to change property values in an existing trap in the database pane. Click the Discover button to populate the Discovered pane. As with the Snmp Point Manager view, the Discover button has an additional drop-down button that you can click to open the Dependent MIB Directories dialog box. See About SNMP point discovery for more information about discovery and setting the MIB directory.
