This trap is used to inform network management system that a delta fault event (events that are automatically cleared) has occured or a normal fault event (not automatically cleared) state has been set on.

Objects are used as follows: - eventSeqNum is the sequence number of the event. For normal type of events must equal to the sequence number of the event in the events table. - eventEventId specifies what fault event has occured. - eventName specifies the name of the fault event. - eventSetTime indicates when fault event has occured (delta events) or when fault has been set on (normal events). - eventSeverity reports the severity level of the event. - eventInstanceType indicates what kind of object is faulty. - eventInstanceId specifies what instance is faulty. - eventInstanceName may contain textual description for the faulty object. - eventServAffective specifies whether the event is immediately service affcetive. - eventDescription reports possible additional information about the event. - trapPersistence tells whether this event is a delta or normal event. - trapSenderNodeId specifies the node ID of the sending network element if configuring it is supported for the network element, otherwise 0. - sysObjectID specifies what kind of equipment reports the fault event.
