What is fnTrapDesc?
This object provides the human-readable text explaining what the Fortinet trap actually reports, giving an administrator immediate plain-language context alongside the more cryptic numeric trap type code. Staff read this description directly when reviewing incoming FortiGate alerts to understand the specific details of an event without needing to decode the trap type separately. For example, this text might read something like 'CPU usage exceeded 90% threshold' to explain a high-CPU trap in detail.
