Hi!

I'm running ucd-snmpd on a Suse-Linux box.
I encountered a behaviour in ucd-snmpd 4.2 (unfortunately I can not change to a recent version).
For each trapsink-entry in ucdsnmpd.conf a udp-port is opened by ucd-snmpd. The port numbers are dynamic.


For example: two trapsinks configured in ucdsnmpd.conf:

<snip>
trapsink
trap2sink
<snip>

netstat results into:

<snip>
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:32770 0.0.0.0:* 7940/snmpd
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:32771 0.0.0.0:* 7940/snmpd
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:10000 0.0.0.0:* 32450/perl
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:161 0.0.0.0:* 7940/snmpd
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:929 0.0.0.0:* 1177/rpc.statd
<snip>


Questions: Why are these ports opened? Is there a way to configure ucd-snmpd to bind the ports to a specific address (like 127.0.0.1)? Or is there a way to prevent them to be opened anyway?

thanks in advance - robert
