ABSTRACT:
Traps from network devices are filtered and prioritized. Filtering and prioritization can be performed on specific types of traps, traps from specific devices and traps from specific enterprises. Filtering is performed to reduce the number of traps that are processed, and prioritization is performed to indicate the relative importance of the traps. The filtering and prioritization can be performed by a trap daemon, which is executed by a network manager. Priorities and filters can be assigned to the traps, devices and enterprises by a network administrator. This provides the network administrator with great flexibility in managing the traps according to the situation at hand.
