So the trap receiver is listening on this address (and this address only).

That looks about right.

What are you using for "host" in this command?

Which indicates that the receiver is working fine.
So the problem is most likely at the sending side.

The one thing that springs to mind is to make sure that the
destination specified on the snmptrap command line matches
the address that the receiver is listening on.
If that doesn't fix it, try running both receiver and sender with the
flag '-d', to dump the raw packets. What do you see on either side?
