You need to configure the snmp trap endpoint via the REST 
api(phosphor-rest-server),Please look at the configuration command at 
the following link

https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-snmp/blob/master/docs/snmp-configuration.md

We also had a configuration in phosphor-dbus-monitor where it is 
configured that for which D-bus event, snmp traps need to be sent.

https://github.com/openbmc/phosphor-dbus-monitor/blob/master/src/example/example.yaml

phosphor-dbus-monitor, monitors the D-bus event, and as per the 
phosphor-event configuration,snmp trap is  sent.

Once you configure the SNMP trap endpoint and the phosphor-dbus-event 
then you need to run the  snmptrapd outside the BMC to receive the SNMP 
traps .

You may run the snmptrapd inside the BMC also.

NOTE: Make sure that wherever you are running the snmptrapd, firewall is 
not blocking the packets.
