Trap Configuration Examples Do Not Work For net-snmp v5.8

The examples in the How to Send Traps in Oracle VM Server for SPARC 3.6 Management Information Base User’s Guide will not work when using net-snmp v5.8. To workaround this issue in net-snmp v5.8, replace this command: 

trapsink localhost

with this command:

trapsink -s 127.0.0.1:0 localhost

This is a known issue for net-snmp v5.8 that requires you to set a source. For more information, see https://sourceforge.net/p/net-snmp/mailman/message/36398374/.
