You can delete SNMP trap definitions from the current scope to remove them from your monitoring configuration. Deleting a trap prevents it from being used for alert generation. You can delete individual traps or multiple traps in bulk.
Before you begin
- Ensure that the trap definitions you want to delete are available in the current scope
- Traps inherited from higher scopes (for example, Global) cannot be deleted directly
Delete a single trap
- Go to Setup → Account → Monitoring → Metrics & Events → SNMP Traps.
- Locate the trap you want to delete.
- Click the More actions (⋯) menu for the trap.
- Click Remove.
- Confirm the deletion. The selected trap definition is removed from the current scope.
Note
- Review trap usage before deletion to avoid missing important alerts
- Avoid deleting traps that are actively used in monitoring. Use Alert Exclude instead of deletion when you want to retain the trap definition but prevent alert generation.
Delete multiple traps
- Go to Setup → Account → Monitoring → Metrics & Events → SNMP Traps.
- Select one or more trap definitions using the checkboxes.
- Click Remove.
- Confirm the deletion. The selected trap definitions are removed from the current scope.
