A new option "SNMP trap processing" has been added to the Event Console log setting.
This setting is currently used in the following ways:
- It controls the log level of all SNMP related log messages. Previously some of the SNMP messages were controlled through the "Processing of incoming events" setting.
- Nothing is logged in Informational log level
- When set to Verbose it shows details about which traps are received by the Event Console and how they are handled on protocol level (whether they are accepted or dropped).
- When set to Debug it tells the underlying SNMP library (PySNMP) to write it's debug output to the var/log/mkeventd.log. Please be careful with this level. It may result in a lot of log output when you set it to debug for instances which receive a lot of SNMP traps.
