Hi,
I am trying to understand why when I have a trapsink directive in snmpd.conf,
snmpd creates a socket which listens for UDP connections on a random ephemeral
port.
For example I have configured this in the snmpd config to send traps to
192.168.1.5:
trapsink 192.168.1.5 public
And for some reason, I now have three sockets:
~]# netstat -ntupl | grep [s]nmpd
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:199 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 8998/snmpd
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:49689 0.0.0.0:* 8998/snmpd
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:161 0.0.0.0:* 8998/snmpd
I know that 161 is for SNMP polling requests and 199 is for SMUX, but what is
the purpose of the socket which listens on UDP port 49689 here?
