Yes. So what if this situation has indeed occurred? Consider the case with one proxy that receives a v1 trap, converts it into a v2 trap (adding snmpTrapEnterprise), and passes it on to some configured destination. This happens to be another proxy, that receives the v2 trap, converts it back into a v1 trap (using the snmpTrapEnterprise varbind) and passes this on to the final destination. What differences (if any) should there be between the original v1 trap, and the final one? Dave
