Ok, I implemented a SNMP trap receiver (minimal version of snmptrapd) and found that the connection does indeed get made and torn down each time a trap is sent when using the forward directive in snmptrapd.conf. Anyone know if there is a way to make the connection persist? For now I'm using UDP over localhost which I guess should be suffice, but TCP would be better since I wouldn't want a trap to show up in the snmptrapd log, but not in my management application. Any thoughts on the UDP approach over localhost? ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
