If this is just a small LAN network with a handful of agents, you could simply have the different agents send the traps to different pots on the snmp-manager system. That way, depending on which port the request came in, you could isolate which agent sent the message. A possible limitation of this, is that we have no way of protecting the setup against spoofing. Also, I haven't had the need to work with snmp traps (yet), so take my advice with a grain of salt. -Abraham V. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE: Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.
