RE: snmptrapd 101
From: Seger, Mark [mailto:mark.se...@hp.com] Sent: Saturday, December 19, 2009 4:11 AM So does anyone have any idea why I can't receive local traps? What address(es) is your snmptrapd listening on? To receive traps to localhost you must have either 127.0.0.1 or 0.0.0.0 in the list.

RE: snmptrapd 101
I finally found my problem and I don't know if this is a bug, a feature or some sort of configuration error on my part. I decided to try running tcpdump when doing the snmptrap command and sure enough, nothing! For complete grins, to make sure tcpdump was working I went to a different system and did a ping. Worked fine so while there I decided to try snmptrap and lo and behold, I received it! In other works remote traps are being received but local ones aren't. I gotta believe snmptrapd can receive local traps especially since all the examples in the FAQ show sending to 'localhost'. So does anyone have any idea why I can't receive local traps? -mark -Original Message- From: Seger, Mark Sent: Friday, December 18, 2009 3:48 PM To: Mike Ayers; net-snmp-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: RE: snmptrapd 101 But you only authorized execution, not logging.

I also tried running it with -D and it prints a ton of stuff. If I then run one of the snmptrap commands it doesn't do a thing so clearly nothing is waking it up, if that helps. Also if I run snmptrapd with -d, it doesn't report anything when I send traps. -mark HTH, Mike -- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev ___ Net-snmp-users mailing list Net-snmp-users@lists.sourceforge.net Please see the following page to unsubscribe or change other options: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-users -- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev ___ Net-snmp-users mailing list Net-snmp-users@lists.sourceforge.net Please see the following page to unsubscribe or change other options: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/net-snmp-users

Which interfaces did you make tcpdump listen to ? Have you tried tcpdump -i any, which also captures traffic sent over the localhost interface ?

RE: snmptrapd 101
From: Seger, Mark [mailto:mark.se...@hp.com] Sent: Friday, December 18, 2009 12:12 PM Starting with the basics, I have /etc/snmp/snmptrapd.conf with one entry in it: authCommunity execute public if I comment it out, snmptrapd complains so it’s clearly doing something with this. Next I’m running snmptrapd –f –LO, which according to the documentation should report traps directly on the terminal But you only authorized execution, not logging. Change execute to log above and you should see the notifications.
