Just to check - this is the master agent you are running here,
yes?

Hmmm... that looks worrying.
If the master agent doesn't know about "trapsink" and the like,
then it shouldn't be able to send traps out at all.

but:

I don't understand how it is generating this packet, given that it
doesn't like the "trapsink" directive.

I'd also expect to see the connection conversation from your subagent.
If that initial AgentX request isn't being received, then the subagent won't
be able to talk to the master agent for sending traps either.


I think you need to look again at how your subagent is setting up the
connection to the master agent.
