It depends what you mean by "simultaneously".
The snmptrapd daemon is single threaded, so can only process one
incoming trap at a time.   But the other traps will be held until
they can be processed.
   So traps arriving at the same time *will* all be processed (unless
you overload the daemon).   There just may be some slight delays.


> If so should there be as many trapd processes as number of ports?

That wouldn't help, unless the incoming traps were being sent *TO*
different ports, with a trapd process listening on each one.
If they're all being sent to the same destination port (just *from*
different source ports), then there's only going to be one trapd
process listening on that port.
