I tried to setup SNMP traps on a testing switch. For some reason, it sent to our radius server first to authenticate (error message: SNMPv2-MIB:authenticationFailure). Maybe I'm not fully understood how snmp works. I though traps should be sent to our network management system directly. Can anyone help and explain to me?
