What I am attempting to do is to activate SNMP on my Mac OS X.4 clients in our organization. I have a Windows audit application that uses SNMP.
Set up a Sensu client as a Simple Network Management Protocol trap receiver. MAC address notification enables you to track users on a network by storing the MAC address activity on the switch. Whenever the switch learns or removes a MAC address, an SNMP notification can be generated and sent to the network management system (NMS).
I need to get this SNMP to work on my Mac's. I am unable to get SNMP to work on my Mac OS X.4 client. I edited the /etc/hostconfig file with the line SNMPSERVER=-YES. I have logged on as root and used the perl script - snmpconf -g basicsetup. Went through the questions and answered them. Then I restarted.
I then took a look at var/log/snmpd.log but there are 8 errors. This is what it said: nlist err: neither icmpstat nor icmpstat found. /usr/share/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 21: Error: Blank line following rouser token. /usr/share/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 26: Error: Blank line following rocommunity token. /usr/share/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 31: Error: Blank line following rwcommunity token. /usr/share/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 55: Error: Blank line following proc token. /usr/share/snmp/snmpd.conf: line 70: Error: Blank line following disk token.

Yum install net-snmp net-snmp-utils snmptrapd -A -d -n -Lf trap.log Hi. I am getting below error message. Warning: no access control information configured. This receiver will.NOT.
accept any incoming notifications. NET-SNMP version 5.3.2.2 couldn't open udp:162 - errno 98 ('Address already in use') - I guess below.
1) have to configure SNMP CONF file 2) have to open port 162 To overcome above mentioned.i wish to know. 1) where is the snmpconf file. 2) how to configure it 3) what is the meaning of ' snmptrapd -A -d -n -Lf trap.log'. That is in this command are we mentioning ip of IDS/IPS. Requesting you to suggest and help me.
Yes, you have to open port 162 in your firewall. Normally SNMP config file is in following directory. /usr/local/etc/snmp/snmp.conf, /usr/local/etc/snmp/snmp.local.conf - common configuration settings /.snmp/snmp.conf - user-specific configuration settings snmptrapd -A -d -n -Lf trap.log Options -a Ignore authenticationFailure traps.A Append to the log file rather than truncating it.
Note that this needs to come before any -Lf options that it should apply to.c FILE Read FILE as a configuration file.C Do not read any configuration files except the one optionally specified by the -c option.d Dump (in hexadecimal) the sent and received SNMP packets.D TOKEN. Turn on debugging output for the given TOKEN(s). Try ALL for extremely verbose output.f Do not fork from the calling shell.F FORMAT When logging to standard output, use the format in the string FORMAT.
See the section FORMAT SPECIFICATIONS below for more details.h, -help Display a brief usage message and then exit.H Display a list of configuration file directives understood by the trap daemon and then exit.I -INITLIST Specifies which modules should (or should not) be initialized when snmptrapd starts up. If the comma-separated INITLIST is preceded with a '-', it is the list of modules that should not be started. Otherwise this is the list of the only modules that should be started. To get a list of compiled modules, run snmptrapd with the arguments -Dmibinit -H (assuming debugging support has been compiled in).Lefos Specify where logging output should be directed (standard error or output, to a file or via syslog).
See LOGGING OPTIONS in snmpcmd(1) for details.m MIBLIST Specifies a colon separated list of MIB modules to load for this application. This overrides the environment variable MIBS. See snmpcmd(1) for details.M DIRLIST Specifies a colon separated list of directories to search for MIBs.
This overrides the environment variable MIBDIRS. See snmpcmd(1) for details.n Do not attempt to translate source addresses of incoming packets into hostnames.p FILE Save the process ID of the trap daemon in FILE.O abeEfnqQsStTuUvxX Specifies how MIB objects and other output should be displayed. See the section OUTPUT OPTIONS in the snmpcmd(1) manual page for details.t Do not log traps to syslog. This disables logging to syslog. This is useful if you want the snmptrapd application to only run traphandle hooks and not to log any traps to any location.v, -version Print version information for the trap daemon and then exit.

I find some blogs and did the below changes.But still i could not fine where the Traps received.
