Can binding messages be modified for SNMP trap sensors?

Votes:

0

Right now we are monitoring our wireless LAN controller to send traps when an AP is disassociated. I have set up the filtering for the messages that I want to see in PRTG and we have added the MIBs for the WLC but when we get an alert here is what we see in the email:

SNMPv2-MIB::snmpTrapOID.0 = AIRESPACE-WIRELESS-MIB::bsnAPDisassociated
AIRESPACE-WIRELESS-MIB::bsnAPMacAddrTrapVariable.0 = 0081C4XXXX (AP MAC Address)
AIRESPACE-WIRELESS-MIB::bsnAPName.0 = KawXXXX (AP name)

Is there a way to clean up this output from PRTG so that the email alert just says the MAC address and AP name? This is what the binding message looks like when PRTG receives it.

Hello,

I am afraid that it is not possible to isolate e.g. a MAC address or an AP name only in the binding messages, sorry.

Best regards
