All you need is a trap receiver application, and to have udp/162 unfiltered from agent to PC. There are plenty of trap receivers available including many free/open source tools. I personally use Net-SNMP's snmptrapd on FreeBSD and HPOV Network Node Manager on Solaris. Other people might be able to recommend other trap receivers.

thankz clarck...actually im trying to do this some other free software bt its nt working can u plz suggest sumthing free n better.

Net-SNMP is free (http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net). Other people may have other opinions on what free trap receivers work well for them.

thankz clacrk for ur kind response...it resolves my issue.
