[Linux-cluster] RHCS & snmpd[30622]: Received SNMP packet(s) from UDP

[Hofmeister, James (WTEC Linux)]

Hello folks,

RE: SNMP packets from local host.

6-10 per minute 

Dec 10 07:18:57 host1 snmpd[30622]: Connection from UDP: [127.0.0.1]:49231
Dec 10 07:18:57 host1 snmpd[30622]: Received SNMP packet(s) from UDP: [127.0.0.1]:49231

I see this quite often in RHCS clusters and have not determined if the source is a function of RHCS or if this is one of the HP health agents.

I am aware that these messages can be turned off in the SNMP configuration, I am more interested in the source.

Any feedback would be appreciated.
