I'm an old HP Openview Network Node Manager user who changed to Whatsup and one thing I really miss is the ability to receive a trap, each field is treated as a variable and I could decide on how I wanted the trap presented to SMS paging, email or logging.
Instead of getting a trap with 10 or 20 fields in it containing lots of characters, I could reduce this to a simple message by using the % variables to filter out the unwanted information. For example, I get the following trap; 20020325 094521 SNMP 203.2.132.226 Trap(ciscoIsdnMibTrapPrefix-6.2) ciscoIsdnMibTrapPrefix Addr:203.2.11.99 Int:6 Int:2 Tick:"3 days 00:08:11" demandNbrLogIf.17.1=27 demandNbrName.17.1=ausagm09 demandNbrLastDuration.17.1=206 demandNbrClearReason.17.1="Normal call clearing" demandNbrClearCode.17.1=0x10 demandNbrEntry.17.17.1=2 Where I really want to say to a email or SMS page; ausagm09 Normal call clearing Currently Whatsup doesn't allow me to do this that I am aware of, so I am looking for alternative trap handlers that do.
