Hi, I am able to receive SNMPv3 traps after setting the trapsess parameters correctly(particularly the port number 162) by seeing an earlier answered query for another developer.
Now I have another concern. When the passphrase is wrongly entered in the snmpd.conf (not the same as configured in snmptrapd.conf), the agent sends the trap and the snmptrapd complains of authentication failure but still receives the trap. The following is displayed in snmptrapd console and the trap is also getting displayed below this: usm: USM processing begun... usm: Verification failed. Authentication failed for myuser I doubt if it is the correct way. Can you pl. tell me if I am missing out anything here ?? When the user itself is wrong in snmpd.conf (other than the one in the snmptrapd.conf), the agent doesn't send the trap atall.
