SNMP Trap meets the selected criteria.
Note: Filtering can only be done on Enterprise ID and trap type;
it cannot be done based on individual OIDs.
Reset Trap – Specifies the Trap Type criteria that will reset any
existing alerts for this monitor.
Note: You can have the trap reset based on a different OID. This

own OID when an issue clears. For example, you could have
two SNMP actions, one of the type OneSight Critical and one of
the type OneSight Normal. If you set the trap type to OneSight
Critical and the reset trap to OneSight Normal, the trap will
reset when a trap is received that is associated with the
OneSight Normal OID.

example, if the long name were as shown in the above
example, the short name would be icmplnMsgs.
