Title:
  netplan.io's secondary IP address feature causes snmpd errors

Status in net-snmp package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in netplan.io package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  netplan doesn't provide for interface aliases (for example: eth0:0),
  however, assigning two IP addresses to an interface the way netplan
  does causes snmpd to produce numerous "error on subcontainer 'ia_addr'
  insert (-1)" entries in syslog reported by snmpd.  This should'nt
  happen and is either a problem with snmpd or netplan.  This also
  occurs on non-netplan systems (for example, Ubuntu 16.04 using
  keepalived) when a secondary IP address is added without making it an
  alias.  Ubuntu 16.04 systems using interface aliases do not experience
  this problem.  If needed, I can supply information from the Ubuntu
  16.04 systems.
