And how is your program expected to know that the trap is this particular alarm, rather than a linkUp/Down trap, or an indication that some system has rebooted, or that your house is on fire? The trap OID is used to identify which notification is being sent. (Assuming SNMPv2 style notifications - SNMPv1 uses a slightly different format, but this effectively equates to an OID anyway). So no - you can't have a trap without an identifying OID. Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
