SNMP Traps Don't contain Pool Information, only pool member

We're running 9.3.1

 

 

When our LTMs send traps on pool members up/down the messages don't include which pool the member is from.

 

 

I ran some dumps and proved this out.

 

 

This poses an issue for correlation on the the trap receiver.. They would have to keep an updated bigip.conf and script something out to make a correlations to the app effected...

 

 

Yes in theory there would have to be a correlation anyways, and the pool member and port are unique, so it should be enough to go on...

 

 

None the less, I heard in more recent codes it includes the pool, is there a way to take care of this with 9.3.1, i'd like to avoid a whole bunch of custom traps. Any ideas are apprecaited...

 

 

Thanks!
