(An application may be configured to specify the wait time, retransmit interval and number of INFORMS to keep in queue). The SNMP Engine will also queue up and re-send unacknowledged INFORMS up to a certain configured number over a specified period of time. I.E., when the notification receiver receives an INFORM it sends a response back that indicates "INFORM received". INFORMs INFORMs are nothing more than an acknowledged TRAP. TRAPs Sent by an application or daemon but no response is sent or expected by the notification receiver. There is one fundamental difference between SNMP INFORMs and TRAPs: (In SNMPv1, there was only TRAPs SNMPv2c and SNMPv3 support INFORMs too). SNMP supports two types of notifications: TRAPs and INFORMs. TUT:snmptrap SNMPv3 - Discussing SNMPv3 notifications and sending them using snmptrap.TUT:snmptrap - Discussing SNMP notifications and sending them using snmptrap.
