Hi All,

This is quite old one but found very useful as we are also implementing 
generating of SNMP trap messages using log4j for one of our project. 
Your below link 
(http://www.m2technologies.net/html/doc/org/apache/log4j/ext/SNMPTrapApp
ender.html) is not working. can you please redirect me for more 
information like how will our log4j2.xml look like and how can we call 
in our java application. 

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Girish Kulkarni
