I had ethereal running during the testing. And yes, I
did see the linkDown trap message received by the
destination terminal for the traps.
So, should I just create this new file wth the same
contents as the file that I am using right now (i.e.
the one in /var/net-snmp)?

That sounds as if it's NNM which is receiving the traps, not snmptrapd.
In which case, it's not surprising that snmptrapd isn't actually
doing anything!

Uh, definitely. This is the persistent file that's not meant
to hold "traphandle" directives (as that file clearly says:
don't edit it).

But are you sure that the trap daemon is actually
*receiving* a 'linkDown' trap? The Net-SNMP agent
doesn't normally generate such things.

I doubt that's the solution, since Prashanth is clearly seeing
the output from snmptrapd.

I still get the same error message when I try out
snmptrapd -m ALL -P. So can anyone tell me what
exactly is the problem.

David's correct that traphandle directives would normally be
in a "static" config file rather than /var/net-snmp
But it looks here as if the proble

Hi,
I wrote a code that would be launched when the network
entity encountered a linkDown trap. And after
modifying the snmptrapd.conf by adding the traphandle
directive, the code worked. But since I had to use the
trap daemon for some other codes, I removed the
traphandle directive.
