Appendix A.4. Controlling how a MIB file reports traps

The connection parameter ‘Do_not_MIB_this_Node’ controls whether a Node’s traps contribute to the MIB file. This parameter is useful where duplicate traps are being sent to more than one destination.

Some aspects of how traps are reported in the MIB file may be controlled with a Node parameter called ‘MIB_Style_for_Traps’

Adapters

Poll_Delay,

MIB_Style_for_Traps

N1,

Style1

Permitted Values for the parameter are:

Style1 (Default)

Style2

Style3

Style2 and 3 add information to the trap description on the trap origin.

Style3 defines the parameters contained in each trap and assigns these parameters hard coded OID’s which are fixed for all traps. In Style 1 and 2, the parameters are not reported in the MIB file and the parameter OID’s are based on the trap OID. Thus style 3 changes the structure and data of the MIB from Style1&2.
