SNMPTrap Driver
The SNMPTrap driver allows a North device to notify a network management station of events by sending Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps. SNMP is widely used to manage and monitor devices on TCP/IP-based networks. It is an Internet standard – IETF RFC 1157. Available for ObSys and Commander.
