    Doesnt this article only show how to disable traps for only virtual servers? what about a specific pool, node etc? is it the same syntax? what about the snmp oid then? Would be great if anyone can reply quick since i need to disable alerts for specific virtual servers, pool as well as nodes.

     

    Thank You
