Hello,

Please use our SNMP Trap Receiver Sensor to monitor the target device.

Hi, Thanks. I did and if i click on the sensor it turns green but I don't see the trap message which is expected to show under "Trap Messages". Do i need any additional configuration to see trap messages? Do i need to change the localhost ip (127.0.0.1) of the PRTG?

Kindly advice.

Thanks you.
