NetView internal traps are sent by UNIX domain socket from the sender
(usually netmon) to trapd.  They do not go out over the network.  They just
look like they do.  In fact, they never leave the box unless you forward
them somewhere.

Subject:  [NV-L] Netview internal traps



Netview uses internal traps. When a trap is sent over a LAN using UDP it
can get lost. Is it possible for Netview internal traps to get lost when
you're using a single processor computer?

I don't think we are losing any internal traps but it is an awkward
question someone has asked me which I can't answer.
