Missing heartbeat alarm

Hi, I have a question. We are getting a trap from our IPC system that is recorded by Solarwinds. I have it set up that it forward traps to me in an email when it receives any. IPC also sends out a heartbeat trap every 5 min that i filter out.

I would like to find a way to send an alert if more than one heartbeat trap is missed.

Thank you

One idea you can do is in configuring the SNMP Trap rule under the Trigger Threshold tab you can specify to suppress the alert unless we receive it x time in x period of time. Not sure if this would work, but you specify if you receive 1 trap within a 5 min window then suppress the alert. So if we received 0, you should get alerted.
