Note that this is not a community name of the destination management
station itself, which typically is not a factor in receiving traps. However,
this event community name is embedded in the trap message and can be
accessed by applications at the destination to allow an application to
decide whether the trap is of interest. This is the second purpose of the
community name in the Trap Destination Table, and currently neither
SPECTRUM nor any of its applications make use of it.
• Traps—Enables transmission of the traps to the network management
station with the associated IP Address.
• Trap IP Address—The IP Address of the workstation that will receive
trap alarms.
