NAME

       snmptrapfmthdlr - Trap handler for receiving SNMP Traps

SYNOPSIS

       snmptrapfmthdlr

DESCRIPTION

       Snmptrapfmthdlr  is  an  application  that  receives  SNMP  traps  from
       snmptrapd as a trap handler. The trap data is then forwarded to a local
       pipe  from  which a formatting application picks it up and does further
       processing.  The formatting application is snmptrapfmt.

FILES

       /etc/snmp/snmptrapd.conf is the configuration  file  of  the  snmptrapd
       daemon, which calls the trap handler snmptrapfmthdlr.

       /usr/sbin/snmptrapfmt  is the executable of the formatting application.

       /usr/sbin/snmptrapfmthdlr is the executable of the trap handler.

       /var/run/snmptrapfmt.p is  the  communication  pipe  between  the  trap
       handler snmptrapfmthdlr and the formatter snmptrapfmt.

       /var/tmp/snmptrapfmt.trc is the error file of the application.
