Hyperic and SNMP traps

http://support.hyperic.com/display/DOC/Configuring+HQ+as+an+SNMP+Trap+Receiver

I add
snmpTrapReceiver.listenAddress=udp:0.0.0.0/1620
to agent.properties


restart agent

netstat -an

UDP 0.0.0.0:1620 *:*


Click on Resources/New Platform/

name=TrapProxy
description=receiving SNMP traps
Platform type=Network device
agent connection=127.0.0.1:2144
fqdn=myhostSNMP.acme.com
ipaddress=10.56.64.190
mac=???
netmask=???


OK

now scroll down and click Edit in the "Configuration Properties"

interface.index=ifDescr
snmpIp=10.56.64.190
snmpCommunity=public
snmpPort=1620 (instead of the default 161)

OK

I get "Error contacting resource: Unable to connect to SNMP Agent (10.56.64.190:1620 v2c,public)"
