Typically you need to have both an SNMP metrics poller and a trap handler.
They're kinda separate things and need to be handled in their own way.
Old-school network tools try and do both, and end up doing both badly. :-)

The snmp_exporter is one of the better OID polling handlers out there at
the moment. IMO, not handling traps is a good thing, as it keeps it
specialized for what it's good at. Right tool for the right job.
