change the port NNM listens for traps on

Running on XP I am trying to alter the port that OpenView listens for traps on. Is this possible? I want it to listen for traps which are being forwarded on from another piece of software on the same PC. This software receives the traps from the network on 162 and will then forward it on to NNM on a different port. The point of this is to test the trap forwarding of the software to another program on the local machine.

Many thanks

I have in the past changed the trap listening port on solaris NNM by changing the /etc/services entry for SNMP-TRAP entry.
Restart NNM and this should change the port.
I normally change OV-NNM listen to snmp traps on 10162 UDP port and run another trap exploder program on UDP 162

Hope this helps,

Dan
