James,
Here's what I get when I run a netstat -an,
D:\usr\ov\bin>netstat -an | grep 162
TCP 127.0.0.1:3150 127.0.0.1:3162 ESTABLISHED
TCP 127.0.0.1:3162 127.0.0.1:3150 ESTABLISHED
trapd starts successfully, but this is what I see in nv.log
03/31/06 13:36:07 [trapd] trapd will listen for traps on port 354 (UDP and
TCP)
How do I start trapd on the standard port?
Thanks for all the help
Brett

I'm not sure what exactly you mean. If you followed all the steps and
trapd started without giving you error messages in the trapd.log or the
nv.log, then it should be working.
Perhaps you are misinterpreting the netstat?
If you do
>netstat -an | grep 162
TCP 0.0.0.0:162 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
UDP 0.0.0.0:162 *:*
This is what you should see. TCP is a connection-oriented protocol so an
application open it's end and listens. But UDP is connectionless and all
you'll see is that it's open.

Thx James,
Completed those steps, but now when I start up Netview - port 162 is not
listening at all.
Is there something else that I need to configure?

You are using NetView for Windows? The most likely the issue is the
Microsoft Trap Service. It will only pass SNMPv1 traps to NetView. My
guess is that your Sun N1 Manager is sending SNMPv2 traps and they are
being thrown away by the MS Trap Service.
In the 7.1.4 FixPack 3 and FixPack 4 Release Notes are step-by-step
instructions how to stop using the MS Trap Service and have trapd monitor
the TCP and UDP ports directly.

Hey everyone,
I have a question regarding Netview and receiving traps. I am attempting
to integrate Sun N1 Manager into Netview using SNMP traps. Sun N1 manager
monitors Sun hardware for problems and generates traps. I have configured
it to forward events to our NV714 server, but they never seem to arrive -
nothing in the Event view, or when I view the trapd.log file. I am able to
receive the traps on another host by running snmptrapd.
It seems that I am able to receive traps from all other applications except
this one...
Here's the netstat output
C:\WINDOWS>netstat -an | grep 162
TCP 0.0.0.0:162 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
TCP 127.0.0.1:3150 127.0.0.1:3162 ESTABLISHED
TCP 127.0.0.1:3162 127.0.0.1:3150 ESTABLISHED
UDP 0.0.0.0:162 *:*
C:\WINDOWS>
The only thing that I can think of is that Netview is listening from traps
on a TCP port, and not? the UDP port? Can I configure NV to listen on both
UDP/TCP ports?
Any suggestions?
Thx,
Brett
