I'm still seeing this issue in Cosmic 18.10. It seems that, by default, snmpd is set to log at the DEBUG level which seems too intensive.
To fix I had to run the following (where "LS4d" indicates LOG_WARNING) as per the snmpd man page info below. With the log level set at LOG_WARNING this also has the added bonus that the many "Connection from UDP: [IP]:PORT->[IP]:PORT" snmpd INFO messages are also not output to /var/log/syslog... $ sudo sed -i "s|-Lsd|-LS4d|" /lib/systemd/system/snmpd.service $ sudo systemctl daemon-reload $ sudo systemctl restart snmpd.service snmpd man page (https://linux.die.net/man/1/snmpcmd): 0 or ! for LOG_EMERG, 1 or a for LOG_ALERT, 2 or c for LOG_CRIT, 3 or e for LOG_ERR, 4 or w for LOG_WARNING, 5 or n for LOG_NOTICE, 6 or i for LOG_INFO, and 7 or d for LOG_DEBUG. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1246347 Title: Lots of "error on subcontainer 'ia_addr' insert (-1)" reports in /var/log/syslog To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/netsnmp/+bug/1246347/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
