The SNMP Traps landing page provides a centralized view of all SNMP trap definitions available in your environment. The SNMP Traps page provides a table view of all trap definitions, allowing you to quickly see key details and manage traps efficiently. It allows you to view, filter, and manage trap definitions across different scopes.
Each row in the table represents a trap definition that determines how an incoming SNMP trap is interpreted and converted into an alert.
The SNMP trap table includes the following columns:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| MIB Module | The MIB file or module from which the trap is derived. |
| OID | The Object Identifier that uniquely identifies the trap. |
| Name | Displays the name of the trap. |
| Defined for | Indicates the scope at which the trap is defined (Global, Service Provider, Partner, or Client). Note: Trap definitions are scoped and may be inherited from higher levels. |
| Severity | The configured severity level for the trap. |
| Alert Subject | The subject line present in the alerts generated from this trap. |
Trap details panel
You can click a trap row to open a slide panel that displays detailed information about the selected trap. This view allows you to understand how the trap is configured and how it will behave when received. The trap details panel includes the following information:
| Parameter | Description |

| MIB module | Shows the MIB file or module from which the trap is derived. |
| Trap name and OID | Displays the name of the trap and the Object Identifier that uniquely identifies it. |
