I am not able to run the the first demo C program given on the website. I want to use localhost as both receiver and sender. I am getting this error:
./snmpdemoapp
snmpget: Unknown user name:

Which username i should set? i used root. Am I supposed to run any program before running these programs.

Yes, if you want to query the localhost you need to run an agent on
it.  If you want to send requests from the localhost then you should
be using a network address and not localhost (IE, not 127.0.0.1) to
send it from because routers shouldn't even be routing it in the first
place.
