Hello,

I am testing monitoring and managing netscreen firewalls. I wish to use SNMP to alert my managemnt platform [HP openview]

My first problem is understading what SNMP traps are sent. Looking at the netscreen [support] website, they list many of the MIB's available but many seem to be on a query basis.

For now to begin with I simply want to attack a box behind my Firewall using various old-school hacks [win nuke, SYN attack, PingOfDeath etc..] and for Openview to tell me somting naughty is happening.

I have loaded ALL 38 MIBS, in the correct order yet I am and getting the same Generic Trap sent when I perform such operations as port scans and SYN attcks. I am getting no dscriptions either.

Any help at this stage would be very much appreciated.
