NAME
  snmp_manual_setup - Describes how to manually set up the Simple Network
  Management Protocol (SNMP) agent

DESCRIPTION
  DIGITAL UNIX provides the snmpd daemon as the Simple Network Management
  Protocol (SNMP) agent. The SNMP agent is started at boot time.

Manually Configuring the snmpd Daemon
  To manually configure the snmpd daemon, perform the following steps:

   1.  Edit the /etc/snmpd.conf file.

       The /etc/snmpd.conf file defines the initial values for three MIB
       variables, as well as access control based on community names.

       For more information, see the snmpd(8) reference page.

   2.  Edit the /etc/rc.config file by using the /usr/sbin/rcmgr command.
       The syntax for the /usr/sbin/rcmgr command is as follows:



       /usr/sbin/rcmgr set variable value

       To edit the /etc/rc.config file and add the required information,
       enter the following command:


	    # /usr/sbin/rcmgr set COMMON_AGENT_CONF NO

  For the changes to take effect, restart the snmpd daemon using the
  following commands:

       # /sbin/init.d/snmpd stop
       # /sbin/init.d/snmpd start
