The simplest way is to edit (or create) the file 'snmpd.conf'
to contain a line
rocommunity public
That would allow both snmpget and snmpwalk to query *anything* that
the agent knows about, using the de-facto standard "public" community.
It's probably safer in the longer term to work with a different community,
but it's quite likely that nagios is designed to "public" by default.
So that's where I'd start.
