I don't think so, no. Remember that SNMPv1 traps are non-acknowledged, so that the agent has no way of knowing whether the trap was received or not. It doesn't make sense to try and re-send unacknowledged notifications. I haven't checked the code but would expect that the retry and timeout values are only used for *acknowledged* requests (GET, SET, and INFORM) Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enable your software for Intel(R) Active Management Technology to meet the growing manageability and security demands of your customers.
