Hi, How can I restrict forwarding traps to a desitination (NMS) based on some condition. Probelm Scenario: I want to restrict traps from some network devices (based on IP) to my NMS system. However, the list of devices are not constant, may change depending on the network state. And the assumption is, at any time, that I would have the info of this list of devices at runtime. presently, I am using the following in snmptrapd.conf to forward to my NMS. *forward default <MY NMS IP ADDRESS>* ** 1.Are there any filtering methods in snmptrapd.conf, where I can configure/specify , so that the traps are not forwarded from list of devices. 2.If answer to 1 above is NO , how can I implement the same in snmptrapd C code, Specifically , where and what are the changes I may be required to do.? It would be helpful if you can point me to the specific files/functions where I can do these changes. I have gone through the code once but felt I may break the code if I do changes directly. So seeking help in this direction. 3. Any alternative you would suggest, other than 2 ablove.
