I guess you mean syslog messages, not SNMP traps?

If you send test messages successfully to 10.2.0.9, syslog messages (not
SNMP traps!) from your routers should be received if the routers send the
events as syslog messages.
Please use the performance counter "Total messages received" of the Syslog
Server object to verify if SL4NT receives the UDP messages from the network
layer.
In addition, use Network Monitor (or another sniffer tool) to verify that
messages are send from your routers to the computer.

Did you try Kiwi on the same computer as SL4NT? If yes and Kiwi receives
messages but SL4NT not, then there's something wrong.
Of course, make sure that Kiwi and SL4NT are not running at the same time
(port conflict)
> There is something else to configure?
Not if you have the default configuration (which seems to be the case
because you receive the test messages).
Anyway, please export your configuration to a text file (using SL4NT
Manager) and send it to me (franzk@netal.com).
Thanks,
Franz
