14.3.4 Configuration with HP NNM for monitoring a network
By using JP1/IM - Manager linking with HP NNM version 7.5 or earlier, you can monitor the network in the system.
From JP1/IM - View windows, you can launch the windows of HP NNM version 7.5 or earlier. You can also convert the SNMP traps managed by HP NNM version 7.5 or earlier into JP1 events and monitor the events in the Event Console window of JP1/IM - View.

Alert
SNMP trap conversion and precautions are described in the JP1/Base User's Guide. See the chapter on setting the event converters for details about converting SNMP traps.
-
When the SNMP traps issued by HP NNM version 7.5 or earlier are converted by JP1/Base into JP1 events and monitored, the IP address of the error source host might not be correctly received. This is because, when JP1/Base converts a SNMP trap into a JP1 event, the value set in the source IP address attribute of the JP1 event is the IP address of the host on which JP1/Base resides, not the IP address of the host that issued the SNMP trap. To acquire the name of the issuing host, specify the SNMP trap source extended attribute. To define the attribute value, specify the $EV"SNMP_SOURCE" variable.
