Receive and process SmartConsole messages sent by D-Link switches.
Some D-Link switches have the feature to send traps about some events, like link coming up/down, invalid logins and more.
Unfortunately, D-Link chose not to use the widely supported SNMP protocol, rather they implemented something proprietary called SmartConsole which sends UDP notifications on port 64514.
This project tries to make use of those message.
Once started it will listen to UDP port 64514 (by default) and invoke a command for every received message. The details of the message are passed to the invoked command via environment variables.

If you have another device, you can help me by sending a dump of your
device's message. A dump will be created if you use the --dump-payload option.
It's likely that it also works with other devices, but there is no guarantee. There is not even a guarantee, that it will work with the listed ones.
- (1001) System bootup
- (1002) WEB authenticate error from remote IP: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
- (3003) Port X copper link up
- (3004) Port X copper link down
- (5001) Firmware upgraded success
- (5002) Firmware upgraded failure
- (5005) Wrong file checksum causes firmware upgrade failure.
The python executable comes with a command line help, which should explain the available options.
The configuration file uses the long version of the CLI options as keywords.
An example is included in dlinktrap.ini.
The program searches for the configuration file at /etc/dlinktrap.ini,
unless the --config option defines something else.
A systemd service file is included, see dlinktrap.service.
On my ubuntu system it goes to /lib/systemd/system.
No error is issued for invalid/unknown configuration keys in the configuration file.
Thanks to Ruslan Ohitin for his project dlinktrapd which in part inspired this one.
