ap-trapd - a SNMP trap processing daemon
ap-trapd [ -i device ] [-u user ] [-s]
ap-trapd It's a SNMP trap processing daemon that accepts traps, parse
them and store useful data using syslog, at logging LEVEL0. Specify
device to listen for SNMP traps on the particular device (this option
only works at Linux). To be running by user different from nobody you may
specify
user.
To correct work with Smartbridges APs specify
-s key (they use specific
traps).
Utility added to ap-utils from version 0.8.
To store traps to own log file you may add next string to your
/etc/syslog.conf
local0.* /var/log/ap-traps.log
After doing it, just restart syslogd with command like
killall -HUP syslogd
