We¹re using looper-ng (http://sourceforge.net/projects/looper/files/looperng/2.0b1/) to change the agent address of all incoming traps. We also use it as a multiplexer so we configure traps to go to a single address (where looper-ng runs); from there they get modified and forwarded to Spectrum, development, and other systems. We¹ve used looper-ng for several years, and we¹ve been quite happy with it.
