Yup.
I'd describe that as active

So even if you manage to run it, you won't actually be
able to query it. It's active, but inaccessible.

That sounds as if there was *already* an agent
running. Probably the one listed by ps.
It's very likely that this also doesn't have a
useful access control configuration.

You haven't set up access control before starting
the agent initially.
Create a file /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf (or
/usr/local/snmp/snmpd.conf depending on how
the software was compiled), containing
rocommunity public
Make sure that the agent is *not* running
(using ps to check), and then run:
snmpd -f -Le
What does this display?
