Trap Community | This name needs to accompany trap messages. If it does |
| not match the name setting on the network management |
| station that receives the traps, the trap messages are |
| rejected and lost. By default, the trap community is set to |
| “public.” |
Operation Types

| MIB; a |
| message. |

| sequentially through a MIB. |
