Can PRTG receive SNMP traps?
Add a Syslog Receiver sensor or an SNMP Trap Receiver sensor in PRTG. To receive all syslog or SNMP trap messages from the probe system, add the respective sensors to the probe device. You can also add the sensors directly to a device in PRTG if you only want to process messages from this device.
What is SNMP trap in PRTG?

Why can’t PRTG send SNMP requests?
first of all please check if the SNMP Settings (Version, Community String, port, eventual authentication, etc.) are correct. Then please also check if PRTG (or the PC on which PRTG is installed) is allowed to send SNMP Requests to the device in case (this usually has to be allowed on Firwalls).
