OpenSAF SNMP "Notifications" are SNMP "traps".
> The MIBS for OpenSAF specifies e.g. From SAF-AMF-MIB:

> IMPORTS
> <snip>
> NOTIFICATION-GROUP

[MATHI]
All MIB objects of type "NOTIFICATION-TYPE" qualify to be implemented as
SNMP traps.
For e.g.:-
The following is a definition of an object that is sent as an SNMP trap.
Here the SNMP trap saAmfStateChgNodeAdmin shall carry information about
saAmfNodeName & saAmfNodeAdminState in this trap.
saAmfStateChgNodeAdmin NOTIFICATION-TYPE
OBJECTS {
saAmfNodeName,
saAmfNodeAdminState
}
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"Triggered when the administrative state of a Node
'saAmfNodeName'
changes. This Notification also contains the current
administrative state
of the Node designated by 'saAmfNodeAdminState'."
::= { saAmfTraps 7 }
The GROUPS clause ("NOTIFICATION GROUPS or OBJECT GROUPS") are for SMIv2
conformance group containment
and can generally be ignored while browsing a MIB.
