Ahmed,

This can be a bit confusing but here's the lowdown on these 2 commands.

The 1st command, as you have it, enables traps for just vtp. If you had
left off the "vtp", then all traps would have been enabled. If you had added
additional parameters, then those traps would also have been enabled.

Now, the 2nd command specifies which of the traps enabled by the first
command will be sent to that snmp server. By default, if you don't specify
any traps with this command, then all enabled traps will be sent. If you
specify a trap with this command that isn't enabled by the first command, it
won't work. From what I understand, this second command is for the purpose
of allowing some traps to be sent to one snmp-server and other traps sent to
a different snmp-server.

There is one Gatcha, though, that you should be aware of. Some traps such
as snmp link status updown are enabled by default. Therefore, if you're
only suppose to have certain specified traps sent which don't include link
updown status, then you must manually disable that trap on each router
interface.
