The Tnm extension follows the SNMPv2 rules. Traps (or better
notifications) are identified by an OID value in the varbind list.
SNMPv1 trap definitions (TRAP-TYPE macro) are converted automatically
to OIDs (see RFC 1908 section 2.2 and RFC 2089). You usually do not
need the generic and specific trap numbers if you write e.g. a trap
filter because the OIDs will work just fine.
However, if you really need to get access to the generic and specific
trap numbers, just revert the mapping described in RFC 1908 section
2.2 and RFC 2089.
