To Determine Whether Port 162 is in use

The OTP system management service requires exclusive use of port 162 for SNMP trap notifications. To determine if port 162 is assigned to any process, proceed as follows:

1. log in as root (su - root) to the 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 server, then results similar to the following are displayed:

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

     You must disable the daemon or the 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.
