And do be sure to consider if trap-based monitoring is the way you want to go. Probe-based monitoring allows you to control the flow a bit better, as even a filtered trap rule doesn't stop devices from sending loads of packets to your Essentials server.
See the following for some bits on how SNMP monitoring works in Essentials, as well as some of your SNMP monitoring options
Personally I like receiving TRAPS just based on getting alerted to some things as they happen instead of the next poling interval
Some of this may be of use if you want to figure out the switch and write your own pack.
