Thanks, I think I decided that I am going to have to setup a separate
machine/process that has a trap watcher which processes/filters the traps
from these devices. When it decides that there is a trap of interest it will
fire off a trap to WUG....

I got to thinking along these lines and it sure would be nice if WUG could.

1. Bring in an problem alert. (could be a switch/router down etc)
2. Fire off a batch file/program which attempts remediation on the problem.
        This batch file depending on the results of the remediation would
either fail or succeed.
3. After the batch is done (pass/fail) WUG would either continue the
notification process or stop.

There are some command line syslog tools that you could incorporate into
your batch file and then alert on the results of your filter back to
whatsup.

Subject: [WhatsUp Forum] Filtering of SNMP traps

I am a new member of the forum. I have Whatsup Gold 8.04 and have a
question. I am working with a wireless accesspoint that can send SNMP traps
when it detects other accesspoints that are potentially "Rogue"
accesspoints.


I have setup WUG to notify on these traps but the problem is that the AP's
also report my known accesspoints. What I need to do is setup WUG to filter
the traps so it only sends the notification message if they are not in the
known good list. 

I set up WUG to fire off a batch file that decides if it is good or not but
don't know how to report the result back to WUG so it can notify me. Is
there a way from a batch file to fire off an WUG event?

Thanks
Tom Davis
