Set global SNMP polling parameters, including trace display values, reachability parameters and the backoff algorithm.
If you select Exponential for the Backoff Algorithm, each SNMP try waits twice as long as the previous try, starting with the specified timeout for
the first try. If you choose Constant Timeout, each SNMP try waits the same, specified amount of time. If you select to use
reachability parameters, the Prime Infrastructure defaults to the global Reachability Retries and Timeout that you configure.
If unchecked, Prime Infrastructure always uses the timeout and retries specified.

Alerts and events are sent as SNMPv2 notifications to configured notification destination. If you are adding a notification
destination with the notification type UDP, the destination you add should be listening to UDP on the same port on which it
is configured. By default, only INFO level events are processed for the selected category. Only SNMPV2 traps are considered
for northbound notification.
