snmptrapfmt for DEBIAN
----------------------

Snmptrapfmt offers formatting functionality to snmptrapd.

To achieve this snmptrapd is configured to call snmptrapfmthdlr. This small 
program is called for each trap by default. You could configure it to be
called only for selected traps.

The trap data is then forwarded to a local pipe from which snmptrapfmt
picks it up and does further processing.

An example configuration for snmptrapd is provided in
/usr/share/doc/snmptrapfmt/examples/snmptrapd.conf.
