Hi Dave,
okay,If the config file "snmpd.conf" is not relevant to the NMS, why does
it reside in NMS? Will this be used by the other end(Agent) or something?
I am working as root in the Manager and another user(but with admin powers)
in Agent.
Before starting:
[(flash)r...@sunsp-xxxxxxxxxxxx:/etc/snmp]# ps -ef | grep snmp
root 16597 1 0 04:17 ? 00:00:01 /bin/bash /etc/snmp/snmpd.sh
start
root 16227 16597 0 10:56 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash /etc/snmp/snmpd.sh
start
root 16228 16227 0 10:56 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash /etc/snmp/snmpd.sh
start
root 16235 29492 0 10:56 pts/0 00:00:00 grep snmp
I start the command in my start script like the following:
[(flash)r...@sp-xxxxxxxxxxxx:~]# ps -ef | grep snmp
root 554 1 0 Jan04 ? 00:00:14 /bin/bash /etc/snmp/snmpd.sh
start
root 19229 554 0 Jan04 ? 00:00:02 /usr/local/bin/snmpd -A -f
-Le -p /var/run/snmpd.pid -C
-c/etc/snmp/snmpd.static.conf,/etc/snmp/snmpd.sysobjectid.conf,/conf/snmpd.local.conf,/conf/snmpd.conf
udp:161,udp6:161
root 19230 554 0 Jan04 ? 00:00:00 /bin/bash /etc/snmp/snmpd.sh
start
root 2128 1017 0 02:40 pts/0 00:00:00 grep snmp
This is the error:
[(flash)r...@sunsp-xxxxxxxxxxxx:~]# vi /var/log/snmpd.log
....
Error opening specified endpoint "udp6:161"
/conf/snmpd.local.conf: line 8: Warning: Unknown token: com2sec6.
/conf/snmpd.local.conf: line 14: Warning: Unknown token: com2sec6.
init_local_cache:local cache initializing
Error opening specified endpoint "udp6:161"
Server Exiting with code 1
In tcpdump I am able to see GetRequest going from NMS to Agent. But no
response from Agent. I have enabled IPv6 in the agent configuration. But now
I seriously think that there is more to do on the Agentside. Any cue?
Thanks,
Karthika.
