determine the authorization of an incoming message.

This controls the type of message format used when a message trap is generated
by the equipment and bound for a SNMP Host. Messages will only be sent if the
gateway has been authorized to do so.

by the equipment and bound for a SNMP host. Messages will only be sent if the
gateway has been authorized to do so.
