./edgetrapmon

The following example starts edgetrapmon on the non-default port 2091 using the SNMPv3 configuration file usersnmpv3.cf in FIPS only mode and logs the traps to the file usertraplog.txt:

UNIX

./edgetrapmon -p 2091 -e /usr/temp/usersnmpv3.cf -m 2 -l /usr/temp/usertraplog.txt

The following example starts edgetrapmon on the non-default port 2091 using the SNMPv3 configuration file usersnmpv3.cf in FIPS only mode and logs the traps to the file usertraplog.txt:

Windows

edgetrapmon -p 2091 -e d:\temp\usersnmpv3.cf -m 2 -l d:\temp\usertraplog.txt
