Short of stopping the adapter and loading a new CDS file, I don't see how
this could be done. TEC adapters are not designed to be dynamically
controlled.
I would use an Event Filter statement to weed out those traps from the
offending device until the owner assures you it has been fixed.
The only option that I can see, other than not forwarding these traps at
all, would be to install an MLM on the same box as your NetView and use it
as a trap filter.

Subject: [NV-L] SNMP Agent Trap Flood on NetView
Periodically, our NetView/NT server gets flooded by SNMP Agent traps which
gets forwarded to the TEC and degrades both NetView/NT and the TEC
performance. We were wondering if there was anyway to temporarily suppress
the SNMP agent trap for that device from flowing to the TEC? This would buy
us some time until we can contact the device administrator to have him/her
remove the netview/nt server from its config as SNMP agent trap receiver
until the problem is fixed.
