You still need someone to get said traps into Nagios.

We do that with snmptrapd  feeding into snmptt dropping into the  
nagios.cmd

something like this.

EVENT linkUp .1.3.6.1.6.3.1.1.5.4 "Status Events" Normal
FORMAT Link up on interface $1.  Admin state: $2.  Operational state: $3
EXEC echo "[EMAIL PROTECTED] PROCESS_SERVICE_CHECK_RESULT;$r;TRAP;0;$2 linkUp : 
$4"  
 >>/var/spool/nagios/rw/nagios.cmd


But with using the above with nagios, it is kind hard to clear the  
alarms if you have multiple interfaces going up/down on 1 box since  
nagios seems to track status for the entire service.   (These are  
submitted to a passive service called TRAP).

I have also been looking at

http://kodu.neti.ee/~risto/sec/

To do event correlation, but haven't had the time to get it all  
integrated as of yet.


We have also used snmptt going directly to qpage for quick and dirty  
notifications.
