ProcedureTo Determine Whether Port 162 is in use

Steps
  1. Log in as root on the management server.

  2. Type grep 162 /etc/services to determine whether port 162 has been assigned to a process.

    • If only the command prompt is returned, then port 162 has not been assigned to a process. No further action is required.

    • If port 162 is assigned to a process on the management server, then results similar to the following are displayed:

      • Solaris:


        # grep 162 /etc/services
        snmpd     162/udp    daemon name     #daemon description
      • Linux


        # grep 162 /etc/services
        snmp    162/TCP   #Simple Net Mgmt Proto
        snmp    162/UDP   #Simple Net Mgmt Proto

      You must disable the daemon or application that is using port 162. To disable a daemon, refer to the operating system documentation. To disable an application that is using the port, refer to the application documentation.
