I'm slightly confused about what trap definitions I have to make here....

I've created an arm trap as follows..
        Enterprise:     .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.12.5.1 (MLM_Threshold) Generic: 6
Specific:1002

I *was* going to create a rearm trap with Specific number 1003, are you
saying that I should leave the Rearm trap at its defaults (Specific Trap 2)
i.e
        Enterprise:     .1.3.6.1.4.1.2.6.12.5.1 (MLM_Threshold) Generic: 6
Specific:2

If so, how does NetView know that the re-arm trap is to be applied to a
specific policy icon ?
