We are running  v5.1.1 Netview on Digital UNIX v4.0d.  We are trying to
find a way to check if an SNMP agent is running on a device.   Often times
the device is pingable but the SNMP agent has failed which doesn't allow
for data collection or trap generation from the device.   Is there a way
for Netview to check for SNMP running on  nodes and if it isn't then
generate a trap so that it can be dealt with.  Thanks!
