Method for controlling trap generation of SNMP
First Claim
1. A method for controlling trap generation of an SNMP which is operated between a manager and at least one agent, wherein a TrapFlag field and a Trap Peer field are defined for each management-object resource (each object) in describing an MIB of an SNMP and more than two objects are correlated to define a trap generation condition.

Abstract
A method for controlling trap generation of an SNMP which is operated between a manager and at least one agent, wherein a TrapFlag field and a Trap Peer field are defined for each management-object resource (each object) in describing an MIB of an SNMP and more than two objects are correlated to define a trap generation condition, so that trap generation can be effectively controlled by defining a trap behavior individually for an object of an SNMP MIB.

9. A method for controlling trap generation of an SNMP which is operated between a manager and at least one agent, comprising the steps of:
-
defining a TrapFlag field and a TrapPeer field in an MIB of an agent;
setting a TrapFlag field value according to the message outputted from the manager;
setting a TrapPeer field value for each object by the agent according to the Trap generation condition defined in the MIB; and
generating a trap for an object according to the values of the TrapFlag field and the TrapPeer field. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method for controlling trap generation of an SNMP comprising the steps of:
-
defining a TrapFlag field and a TrapPeer field in an MIB of an agent; and
generating a trap for an object according to the values of the TrapFlag field and the TrapPeer field as defined, of which the step of generating a trap comprising the sub-steps of;
searching the TrapFlag field of each object when it comes to a trap generation period;
checking a state of the TrapPeer field in case that the TrapFlag is in an ON state; and
generating a trap for a corresponding object in case that the TrapPeer is in an ON state. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
