What happens with OID trimming in excess?

When doing OID trimming in SNMP traps, I have found that one I'm using

  • SYSLOG-MSG-MIB::syslogMsgSeverity

seems to have a different number of octets, that is different according to devices (vendors?)

At the moment I'm trimming 2 octets, but it seems to me that if I have

  • SYSLOG-MSG-MIB::syslogMsgSeverity.4

it stays the same, but if I have

  • SYSLOG-MSG-MIB::syslogMsgSeverity.4.4040

it then is trimmed to what I want:

  • SYSLOG-MSG-MIB::syslogMsgSeverity

So, I believe that the code doesn't allow for trimming in excess? Or is there some special definition to trim everything following a certain prefix?
