Abstract
An SNMP trap daemon in a distributed network management system is enhanced by improving the flexibility of the filtering functions to allow more generality in matching trap information for CMIP conversion and more specificity in determining how traps are forwarded to other managers and mapped to CMIP events. Filtering is added to the trap forwarding mechanism so that specific traps can be routed to specific managers. The format of a mapping file is also modified to allow type conversion and string concatenation of values in the incoming traps. This modification allows improved matching capabilities in CMIP conversion. The format is further modified to allow 'wildcard' matching so that a separate entry is not needed for each incoming trap.
