Traps in SNMP are acknowledged.
A
false
B
true
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Privacy encrypts the payload of the SNMP message to ensure that it cannot be read by unauthorized users. Any intercepted traps will be filled with garbled characters and will be unreadable.

Detailed explanation-2: -SNMP notifications can be sent as traps or inform requests. Traps are unreliable because the receiver does not send acknowledgments when it receives traps. The sender cannot determine if the traps were received. However, an SNMP entity that receives an inform request acknowledges the message with an SNMP response PDU.
