Using the Trap Definition Import Tool

The Trap Definition Import tool is used to import SNMP Trap definitions into the Passive Monitor Library. The list in this dialog is populated by the MIBs typically in your WhatsUp Gold MIB folder (\Program Files\Ipswitch\WhatsUp\Data\Mibs).

To import SNMP trap definitions into the Passive Monitor Library:

  1. In the WhatsUp Gold console, click Tools > Import Trap Definitions. The Trap Definition Import Tool dialog appears.

    Note: Traps that already exist in the database are not imported.

Tip: Use the dialog's scroll bar to scan available traps.
