Title: Is it possible to display Message over multiple lines?
Post by: paul on May 23, 2019, 08:44:52 PM
In every display option whether it is Alarm Browser, Event Log, Event Details, the Message field is only one line. This is fine for exception alarms - but not for traps.

We have traps, for example, from CISCO UCS as well as APC powernet traps that are up to 20 lines long - one varbind per line.

Is there any way that we are able to display these events and alarms with each oid on a separate line?

This should be moved to Feature Request - this cannot currently be done.

This would / could / should? be implemented as follows:

Add extra option in , for SNMP trap mapping, to pass each of the varbinds pass through as both the name, and the value, to Event Configuration.  This information is already available and known via the parameters in the SNMP trap definition.

In the Event Configuration - a tick box option for the parameters from the trap to be passed through to Event Processing. Alternatively, a box which can be selected, that loads up the varbind descriptions and their position i.e. %name %1.

In Event processing, an additional option for displaying the trap details in the Detailed Alarm view in a separate field called Alarm Details.

This would also allow the Alarm Description to be reduced in size from %m which is the whole message down to one or two varbinds - making the alarm display much more readable.
