Do you have any trap definitions already set? It seems you may need to add an example trap definition first and then attempt to send a trap if you want it to display in the GUI. Try that out and let me know if it fixes your issue.

To add onto @sgardil's post above, here is a link to our documentation on SNMP Traps, with specific attention to the "Defining Traps In snmptt.conf" section.
