WUG can parse incoming traps. You can create an alert so that when you get the specific trap (i.e. power failure) it fires the alert. (you will need the MIB name or number. Under Alerts|Edit Notification, you click the check box On SNMP Trap and then fill in the Trap ID or name. If you use the name, you will need to make sure you have compiled the proper Cisco MIB in.
We use it on a number of things, and it works well.
