snmptrapd - Receive and log snmp trap messages.
snmptrapd [-h] [-P] [-s] [-p port] [-d] [-e] [-D tokens] [-l [d0-7]] [-f] [-H] [-a] [-O oidopts] [-C] [-c confFile]
Snmptrapd is an SNMP application that receives and logs snmp trap messages sent to the SNMP-TRAP port (162) on the local machine.
The log
messages are of the form:
Sep 17 22:39:52 suffern snmptrapd: 128.2.13.41: Cold Start
Trap (0) Uptime: 8 days, 0:35:46
Snmptrapd must be run as root so that UDP port 162 can be opened.
-h |
Print a usage summary and exit. |
|||
-P |
Print the logged messages to stdout. |
-p port
Specifies the port to run on, if the default 162 is not desired.
-s |
Log the messages to syslog(8). These syslog messages are sent with the level of LOG_WARNING, and to the LOG_LOCAL0 facility (by default). The demon will also fork away from its caller when the syslog facilities are used. This is the default unless the ’-P’ flag is used. |
-l [d0-7]
Specifies the syslog facility to use, demon or local[0-7].
-a |
makes snmptrapd ignore AuthenticationFailure traps | ||
-d |
Causes the application to dump input and output packets. | ||
-D |
Turn debugging output on. | ||
-f |
Don’t fork away from the caller when using syslog(). |
-O oidopts
Set OID printing options (see snmpcmd(1))
-C |
Don’t read the default set of configuration files. |
-c confFile
Force the reading of confFile as a configuration file.
