Explanation (?): |
The SNMP trap service allows a Windows server to collect information using the simple network management protocol. If you aren't aware of what it is, SNMP allows administrators to monitor and manage network performance. The point of this service is that it relays SNMP information to the programs interested in the information. If you are using SNMP traps then you should leave this set to automatic, and if you aren't then you should uninstall SNMP. |

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." -- The Bene Gesserit Litany of Fear from the novel Dune by Frank Herbert
