I thought I would keep adding to my post as I find stuff.

 

SNMP

 

So if I use the logger command to generate a syslog message I do see a trap arrive at my server.

 

If I repeat the same message within 30 seconds it does not resend another trap. After 30 seconds it does send a new trap.

 

 

SYSLOG

 

SOL10524 states some logging rate limits:

 

  • More than five log messages with the same message ID within a 1-second interval
  • More than 20 log messages from any single module with the same message ID within a 2-second interval
