SNMP Syslog Messaging
SNMP generates detailed syslog messages that are numbered 212nnn. Syslog messages indicate the
status of SNMP requests, SNMP traps, SNMP channels, and SNMP responses from the ASA to a
specified host on a specified interface.
For detailed information about syslog messages, see syslog message guide.
Note SNMP polling fails if SNMP syslog messages exceed a high rate (approximately 4000 per second).
