Verify SNMP trap sending

[Anders Blomkvist]

I have a problem with an HP-UX 11.0 server not sending and traps to the OSS system. I want to verify the SNMP configuration so I do a nettl-trace on ns_ls_udp while I change a NIC status or pull the LAN-cable. There are no UDP messages sent from the server. Is there any other way I can verify the trap sending from the server?

a note on this:
When I start the Snmp Master daemon, I get the following error in the snmpd.log:
bad transport at line 1485 in file ../../../snmpd/unix/trap.c

No clue what this "bad transport" error message mean. Anyone got an idea?

I re-installed HP-UX (it was an old server and was scheduled for re-commissioning anyway) and now it works. So, unfortenately, I cannot verify wether it was that patch that did it or something else.
