4.9.2 Notification
With the Notification function enabled, the Managed Switch can initiatively report to the management station about the important
events that occur on the Views (e.g., the managed device is rebooted), which allows the management station to monitor and
process the events in time.
The notification information includes the following two types:
Trap：
Trap is the information that the managed device initiatively sends to the Network management station without request.
Inform：
Inform packet is sent to inform the management station and ask for the reply. The Managed Switch will resend the
inform request if it doesn’t get the response from the management station during the Timeout interval, and it will terminate
resending the inform request if the resending times reach the specified Retry times. The Inform type, employed on SNMPv2c
and SNMPv3, has a higher security than the Trap type.
