Re: Difference between SNMP notifications and traps [7:62478]
I also found this from cisco's web site SNMP notifications can be sent as traps or inform requests So notification is either a trap or inform request sent by the router.

Re: Difference between SNMP notifications and traps [7:62478]
What is the difference between an SNMP notification and an SNMP trap? I'd have to check later to verify this but I believe 'trap' is the SNMP version 1 term, while 'notification' is the SNMP v2 (or v3?) term. I don't recall what the technical differences are, but they are essentially the same animal. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. I've been awake since 2:30AM so I'm not thinking clearly. :-) John Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7i=62497t=62478 -- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Difference between SNMP notifications and traps [7:62478]
An SNMP notification is a trap. Its that simple. I looked at some Cisco SNMP feature web pages and that is how they used the term.
