Abstract

Methods and systems are disclosed comprising a trap/event registration mechanism wherein a management system in a device network registers each trap/event type on a separate unique listener port. Each unique port number has intelligent binding of the kind of trap/event that can be received thereat. Each trap/event type is tightly bound to the special unique listener port so that the management system will know by virtue of receiving the trap/event at the unique port what kind of trap/event occurred on the device.
