Hi Damian/misc,
I appreciate your input -I really do.
Please see my comments below.
I am not trying to escape the fact that one needs systems in place to
manage large installations, I am merely looking for what *I* think
would be a better way to deploy resources.
As a service provider I can provide advice (and hence I posted this
question in the first place to see if there was a good way to
"multicast" traps to predefined destinations), but it is not in my
power to manage a customers network - so this I'm afraid is out of my
control - but I do agree with your point "...should *never* be a
reason...".
Maybe you answered your own question here - what if you sent your traps
to a multicast address and had proper multicast routing?
Not something I've ever tried, mind you...
