the alert gives you all the information you need.

the first two alerts show an snmp trap broadcast (255.255.255.255)
from ip 10.10.10.50.
This kind of broadcasts could be used to gather information about
devices running an snmp daemon on a standard port within a broadcast
domain. An attacker then could try to exploit know snmp vulnerabilities
to that device.
This could also be a false positive if there is some kind of snmp
collection tool running on the host sending the broadcasts.

if you find the source an you are sure you want it to broadcast your
network regulary (which is kind of strange) you could modify the rule
responsible for this alert in snmp.rules which should look like: alert
udp any any -> 255.255.255.255 161 you could change it to alert udp
$EXTERNAL_NET any -> 255.255.255.255 161 then only broadcasts coming
from external ip adr. would cause an alert. On the other hand an
attacker with a spoofed ip would not generate alerts.

the third alert could be generated because of an answer to the
broadcast. Sender is a device with an official IP i.e an snmp enabled
internet router.
