I neglected to add a related question on to this post - Is there any way to
prevent traps from being processed AT ALL if the related node is unmanaged?
I am assuming (and testing seems to confirm this) that the "supress traps
from unmanaged nodes" feature is specific to filtering the nvevents
display, but the events would still cause trapd.conf actions to be launched
and be processed through the rule sets.  It would be nice if integrated
into the backup facility or netmon there was a way to switch trap
processing on and off depending on managed status of a node.  If someone
can confirm that this can't be done currently, I'll submit it as a feature
request.

Thanks again.
