5149.0. "Two SNMP trap questions" by COMICS::BUTT (Give me the facts real straight.) Fri Jun 04 1993 12:04

    Does DECmcc make any attempt to break out and interpret the so called 
    "Interesting information"  in SNMP enterprise specific traps ?
    
    The time stamp in SNMP traps is transmitted in "Timeticks" where 1
    timetick = 1/100 secs. DECmcc's display of this time stamp as an
    integer makes it difficult to interpret why display this as
    HH:MM:SS.NN?

	If you mean the information in the variable bindings, then the
	answer is yes.

	That is an interesting suggestion. We will surely keep it in mind.

    I do mean the variable bindings but I don't get them.
    
Here are 2 traps generated by a MUXserver 380 and the raw SNMP data that
was sent by the server.

The  first  is  a generic link-down trap and the second is an enterprise 
specific version of the same thing.

DECmcc does not break out the enterise specific variable  bindings  in  the 
second message, I have marked the strart of these bindings with a "*".

	To get the variables, you have to write the alarms expression against
	the enterprise child entity (in this case DEC).
