Startup of Trap Listener is failed may be due to port 162 conflict

Hi all,

Recently we receive the following error when starting DFM:

Startup of Trap Listener is failed may be due to port 162 conflict.

I can't figure out why. As far as I can see port 162 isn't used by any other application, as suggested on http://now.netapp.com/NOW/knowledge/docs/DFM_win/rel381/html/software/opsmgr/monitoring/concept/c_dfm_mntr_snmp-trap-lstn-conf-reqt.html.

If I do a portscan on the DFM server I don't see port 162 being used. I do see that port 161 is being used by service 'snmp', although this service is disabled in services.msc.

If I set the SNMP trap listener to another port, say 1620, I receive the same error.

I can't find anything about this issue n NOW.

Anybody has any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Kind egards,

Bjorn
