Receive SNMP TRAP messages
snmptrapd [-d] [-p] [-p port] [-v 1|2]
Neutrino
By default, messages are sent to the system log. In order to capture the log messages, you need to have syslogd running.
The snmptrapd utility receives SNMP TRAP messages sent to the snmp-trap port on the local machine. If you specify -p, snmptrapd prints messages to standard output. The messages are of the form:
------------------------ Notification ------------------------ 10.0.0.59: Cold Start Trap (0) Uptime: 1 day, 6:11:24 system.sysDescr.0 = "SUN 3/60: SUNOS4.0"
You must have superuser privileges when you run snmptrapd.
