pktcEventReporting

This MIB object defines the action to be taken on
occurrence of this event.  Bit local(0) refers to local
logging of events; bit sylog(1) refers to the
transmission of events using syslog; bit snmpTrap(2)
refers to the transmission of events using SNMP Traps
(SNMPv2-Trap-PDU); and bit snmpInform(3) refers to the
transmission of events using SNMP INFORMs.
              
Setting a bit to a value of '1' indicates that the
corresponding action will be taken upon occurrence of
this event.  If none of the bits are set, then no action
is taken upon occurrence of the event.  The success of
transmission using syslog and SNMP depends on the
MTA configuration.  For example, a valid syslog server
address is required for syslog message transmission.
              
Specification of a management event does not necessarily
include the actions to be taken upon its generation,
i.e., it does not need to specify if a generated event
needs to be transmitted via SNMP or syslog, or stored
locally.  Thus, certain default values are specified,
based on the event's severity level specified by the
MIB object pktcEventSeverityLevel, as follows:
    - If the severity level of an event is emerg(0),
    alert(1), crit(2), or err(3), set the bits for
    local(0), syslog(1), and snmpInform(3) to a value
    of '1' and set the remaining bits to a value of '0'.
    - For an event with any other severity level, set
    the bits for local(0) and syslog(1) to a value
    of '1' and set the rest of the bits to a value
    of '0'.
