Is it possible, using the "Generic Trap Receiver" protocol, to have traps update existing rows in the "Traps" table instead of have them add a new row each time?
For example, when a trap is already added to the table, another trap from the same source and with the same OID could simply update the bindings. This would make it possible to generate an alarm on that specific OID.
I thought this would be possible by configuring the "Trap OID Update Table", but I can't get this to work.
Hi Joey,
I faced the same issue when using the latest version of the Generic Trap Receiver driver (1.0.0.23). However, using the previous version (1.0.0.22), I was able to update an existing trap in the Trap table with a trap from the same source and trap OID.
A task has been created to further investigate this issue [DCP134186].
After some further testing and checking with the developer, I was able to get it working using the latest version.
The “Trap OID Updated” and “Trap OID Updating” both need to be set to “*” and the “Binding Alarm Index” needs to be set to “Trap OID”. When that is configured in the “Trap OID Update Table”, then rows for a specific IP and OID combination will be updated in the Traps table instead of adding a new row every time a trap is received.
