Hello,

Wes, thank you very much for your answer !

I've got 2 types of questions about the use of these 2 MIBs (I've looked 
at all the net-snmp documentation but couldn't find an answer)

1. I've defined my own traps in one private MIB but I don't understand how 
to use the SNMP-NOTIFICATION-MIB.
Should I register my traps in this MIB ?

2. In my snmpd.conf, I use the option 'informsink' to specify to the agent 
where to send the informs. Should I see this target address in the 
SNMP-TARGET-MIB ?
if not, if I add (via snmpset) the same address in this MIB, does the 
inform sent twice ?
If I add a target in the SNMP-TARGET-MIB, is it persistent ? ie is this 
information will be still there after an agent reset ?

thanks for any information
best regards
Celine
