With the upgrade to FC5, snmptrapd does not function "out of the box" as it requires snmptrapd.conf with specific access control information. FC5 uses net-snmp version 5.3. <br><br>According to the man page (5) for
snmptrapd.conf:<br>"Previously, snmptrapd would accept all incoming notifications, and log them<br>automatically (even if no explicit configuration was provided). Starting<br>with release 5.3, access control checks will be applied to incoming notifi-
<br>cations. If snmptrapd is run without a suitable configuration file (or<br>equivalent access control settings), then such traps WILL NOT be processed."<br><br>There is quite a bit of detail provided in the "access control" section of the man page. Unfortunately, it is not obviously apparent what I need to do in order to accept snmp traps from my Linksys router.
<br><br>I was using linksysmon to parse and then log the incoming traps. However, I suspended its use in order to find out what was happening with snmptrapd.<br><br>Can someone please point me to an example snmptrapd.conf
file? It seems to me that such a file should have been part of the package to start with. <br><br>Am I barking up the wrong tree? Should I be tweaking snmp.conf instead?<br><br>Thanks!<br> --Don<br><br><br><br><br>
