The Trap Log screen (Figure 4.44) shows a collection of all the traps that
have been generated. A trap is a mechanism that permits a device to send an
alarm for certain network events to an SNMP management station.
The table shown in this screen lists each trap by its Index number, and
displays the type of error captured by the trap (Trap Number) and the date and
time that the trap was stored (Time Stamp).

Selecting "Top Talkers" displays the Top Talkers screen (Figure 4.45), which
is used to set parameters for and initiate the generation of a list of IP
addresses ranked in terms of the number of frames and octets they have
transmitted during a specified reporting period. This report allows MIS
managers to determine who is generating the most traffic on a WAN based on
IP addresses.
