SNMP Traps

Hi Alex,

is there a way to determine the SNMP community in SNMP trap tests?
It seems as if only "monitor"-traps are accepted.

HostMonitor does not check community field for incoming trap messages at all, so it should receive traps with any community value.

You are right!

I just did a capture with etherpeek and realized that the switch doesn't send any traps unless the community string is set to "monitor"

Cheers
