Probably nowhere.  The problem is that you MIB is not complete so mib2trap
(which works only on individual files) doesn't know how to handle the items
that depend on something in another MIB.

mib2trap uses the same parser as the xnmloadmib2 (UNIX) or loadmibv2
(Windows) executable.  So if the MIB it reads is not complete, you get
warning messages that it did not know what to do with the definitions that
were missing precursors.  If your trap definitions are not among them, then
you have nothing to worry about.  If they are, as they are inn this case
then you need to read the IMPORTS statement to determine what other vendor
MIBs are used.  In this case you'd want to know where these  cpsSecure
constructs are first defined.   Then you get that MIB, and concatenate this
MIB to the bottom of it to create one big new file.  Then you run mib2trap
on the big new file.
