NET.CFG Options Reference

Transport Provider IPX UDP Option

TRAP TARGET ipxaddress ipaddress

Trap targets define the addresses that the SNMP manager sends SNMP traps to.

To receive traps sent by Desktop SNMP, make sure your management workstation address is listed in the IPX (for IPX transport) or UDP (for UDP/IP transport) section of the NET.CFG file.

NOTE:If you do not configure at least one trap target, Desktop SNMP does not send traps.
