Note:
SNMP traps are
not
a guaranteed means of delivering notifications. Traps are a one-way IP network
datagram and the device receiving traps does not acknowledge them. Therefore, if the trap does not reach its
intended destination for whatever reason, the sending device has no way of recognizing this and resending the
trap. To receive acknowledgments use SNMP Informs, available in SNMPv2 and SNMPv3.
SNMP Poll
The SNMP Polling feature allows a SiteBoss to query other devices using SNMP. For more information refer to
