Hello,

When you're monitoring a device with a Trap Receiver sensor it is that device that needs to send traps and PRTG will capture/display them.

The Trap Receiver sensor works a bit differently than other sensors in PRTG, you can aggregate multiple messages from a same device or even from multiple devices in a single sensor, in this case the "sensors per device" rule doesn't apply.

Please find out more about this approach here.
