There is no easy way to do that.

But you know the agent for this trap -- it is Cisco.  So if there is a trap
definition in a MIB for mib2trap to work on, then it will be in a Cisco MIB --
the one supported by this router.  So once again you wind up going to Cisco and
either reading the doc on this router or asking them.  Or you can go out to
their web site and see if you can find their MIBs to download or a current
version of their famous addtrap script (don't know  what they call it) but it
will add about 400 of their traps to NetView -- just about any one you are ever
likely to get.

Hello and Thanks for the response.

So, what I did what use my MIB Browser tool. I went down through the tree
until I reached the following:

.iso.org.dod.internet.mgmt.mib-2.snaDLC.sdlc
(.1.3.6.1.2.41.1)

So, my question is: If I can do this within the MIB Browser, then that means
I must have the MIB already loaded into netview for that enterprise (or
agent - Do MIBs correspond to enterprises or agents?)??.

So now, as previously suggested I can perform a mib2trap command and then
this will update my trapd.conf file and hopefully this will solve the
problem of the trap having no FMT.

But, how can I tell what MIB this trap belongs to??

Any help appreciated.

Gord.
