An SNMP manager typically manages a large number of devices, and each device can have a large number of objects. It is impractical for the manager to poll information from every object on every device. Instead, each SNMP agent on a managed device notifies the manager without solicitation by sending a message known as an event trap.
HPE OneView enables you to control the ability of SNMP managers to read values from an interconnect. You can designate the SNMP manager to which traps will be forwarded. By default, SNMP is enabled with no trap destinations set.
