The snmptrapd application typically listens to port 162 (and maybe 10162) and logs or acts upon any notifications (TRAPs or INFORMs) that it receives.
Configuring snmptrapd
snmptrapd is configured through its snmptrapd.conf file.
Access Control
snmptrapd, at a minimum, needs access control settings to allow notifications using various SNMP protocols access to its logging and execution framework.
Example snmptrapd.conf line:
authCommunity log myInsecureCommunity
will let any incoming notification with a community name of myInsecureCommunity be logged to it's output file/syslog/etc.
