<div dir="ltr">Hi,<div style> </div><div style>In past I have configured snmp traps from network devices to display in the nagios UI. I have defined only one trap service under a network device which captures all the traps sent for this device in the service, so it will always show you the latest submitted trap/message and send out an alert based on if it's a Warning/Critical trap as may be defined by you in the snmptt config file or the integration script you used.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>Since any critical/warning alert logs a ticket on a ticketing system integrated with nagios, we are not so concerned to see all the alerts displayed in one service.</div><div style><br></div>
<div style>In your case if you always want to display all the incoming traps to be displayed permanently you may need to define multiple trap service under that host and in the integration script you have to map different traps to the different services which you defined. But even in that case you might have defined and mapped a cpu trap service and a fan problem trap service under a host, so the cpu and fan trap will not display in the same service but guess if the new fan trap comes it will again override the old trap and show you in the nagios UI. But in this situation there also a chance to miss a trap or unknow trap which you may not have mapped.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>The other way which we are using is I defined a single trap service under a host and I used to reset it to OK after few seconds or minutes of the trap submission so by default it's always OK and once a trap comes it will display it, fire an alert and again rest to OK after few seconds.</div>
