When a management station receives a trap that has been forwarded by
TrapEXPLODER will it report it a coming from the original agent or will it
believe the trap to have originated at the TrapEXPLODER system?

We have tried to forward traps from NetView but the receiving management
station always reports NetView as the origin which is not what we require.
