snmptrapd is the trap receiver part of the Net-SNMP package; I
recommend you take a moment to read the manual page for it and for
snmptrapd.conf; it has a number of options that will tell it to log
traps so you can use snmptrap to then send traps to localhost and view
the contents in snmptrapd to verify  / test etc.

snmptrapd has an init script named snmptrapd :).

Regards,
Max
