The etRptrResetEvent trap conveys information related to the operational status of the repeater. This trap is sent on completion of a repeater reset action. A repeater reset action is defined as an a transition to the START state of Fig 9-2 in section 9 [IEEE 802.3 Std], when triggered by a management command (e.g., an SNMP Set on the etRptrReset object). The agent must throttle the generation of consecutive etRptrResetEvent traps so that there is at least a five-second gap between traps of this type. When traps are throttled, they are dropped, not queued for sending at a future time. (Note that 'generating' a trap means sending to all configured recipients.) The etRptrResetEvent trap is not sent when the agent restarts and sends an SNMP coldStart or warmStart trap. However, it is recommended that a repeater agent send the etRptrOperStatus object as an optional object with its coldStart and warmStart trap PDUs. The etRptrOperStatus object must be included in the varbind list sent with this trap. The agent may optionally include the etRptrHealthText object as well.
