Here's the cloudstack code for the SNMP appender:
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/blob/4.18/plugins/alert-handlers/snmp-alerts/src/main/java/org/apache/cloudstack/alert/snmp/SnmpTrapAppender.java
Here's the appender as configured in my log4j-cloud.xml file:
It's not using localhost. It's using a valid IPv4 address. Only one NIC
exists on the host (other than lo), and tcpdump is listening on that
adapter. Nothing is being sent from the server with a destination UDP (or
TCP) port 162.

H K,
Thanks for responding.
Not a communication issue. The traps are not being sent. I've turned up
tcpdump on the mgmt host and monitored for traffic to our trap receiver. No
trap ever leaves the server.

Sorry didn't go through it fully. Most likely an SNMP communication issue.
I hope your SNMP server is enabled to support version 2c and it is not
disabled. Nowadays v3 is the default I believe.

Hi Will
Is your community "public"? Any info in the logs? Did you try Syslog? Why
I'm asking is to zero in on SNMP traps vs Syslog or the alerting mechanism
itself.
