Thank You Wes Hardaker and Pranesh. This information is very helpful.
So both snmpDaemon and snmptrap able to send traps out and can be used
either of them according to situation.

Pranesh is right: Functionally snmptrap sends a manual trap to a given
destination and it has nothing to do with t
snmpd -- > SNMP Agent Daemon which sends the trap
snmptrapd -> SNMP Trap Daemon which recevies the trap
snmptrap -> Application which sends the trap
You need to code to send traps from the agent. Please follow tutorials.

If your agent wants to send the trap , you need to run the snmpagent(snmpd)

Hi,
Following is the setup:
On system1: 172.16.1.131, ubuntu
> stoped snmpd
ps -eaf |grep snmp
user1 28717 3434 0 18:03 pts/500:00:00 grep --color=auto snmp
ps -eaf |grep snmpd
user2 28719 3434 0 18:03 pts/500:00:00 grep --color=auto snmpd
send snmp trap
$ snmptrap -v 2c -c
please check with
ps -eaf | grep snmpd
The SNMP agent is the one which sends trap.
In case if the agent is not running , the trap receiver may be receiving
traps from the other agent(other machine) please check the ipaddress in
the trap PDU.

Hello everybody,
It seems snmptraps can be sent out without snmpDaemon running background. I
have used command 'snmptrap' to send traps without SNMPDaemon running and
traps sent out successfully.OS: ubuntu
Can anybody let me know why snmpDeamon not necessary while sending traps?
