It wouldn't. > Will this be used by the other end(Agent) or something? Yes - this is the agent configuration file. Remember, the Net-SNMP suite is fundamentally an SNMP toolkit. It is *not* in itself a Network Management System. It provides the building blocks for implementing such a beast, but it doesn't attempt to tackle this role itself. > 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 OK - so there is already an SNMP agent running. This will be listening on port 161. You won't be able to start the Net-SNMP agent to listen on this port as well. Not without stopping the Sun-provided agent first.
