Ok so the format and the syntax doesn't change ? It's strange, because it
seems that Patrol can't receive traps sent from the Sub Agent through the
Master. Other traps are received...

Sure, but my Master Agent sent a start trap using NotificationOriginator
and I think that it sets the trap destination addresses to snmp_notification_mib,
right ?

By the way, how can I remove persistency for snmp_target_mib and snmp_notification_mib
?
