Yes - that's correct.
The trap daemon is designed to run "forever" - it doesn't
exit until you explicitly kill it.    Normally it will
detach itself from the terminal, and run as a daemon.

By giving the '-P' option, you are telling it not to do this,
and to stay attached to the terminal until you kill it.

There is no problem - snmptrapd is working as intended.

If you're not debugging problems, don't use '-P'
and get it to log elsewhere.
