Hi Tarma,

 

 

I can't see a downside to disabling the SNMP trap for this alert--other than the fact that you won't receive the trap anymore. There are a few related solutions you can check on AskF5.com for steps to disable the trap:

 

 

SOL6414 - Determining which alerts are pre-configured to trigger an SNMP trap

 

 

SOL3727 - Configuring custom SNMP traps

 

 

SOL3667 - Configuring SNMP trap alerts to send email notifications
