15.5 Modifying SNMP Configuration
/etc/config/snmpd.conf
The net-snmpd is an extensible SNMP agent which responds to SNMP queries for management
information from SNMP management software. Upon receiving a request, it processes the
request(s), collects the requested information and/or performs the requested operation(s) and
returns the information to the sender.
This includes built-in support for a wide range of MIB information modules, and can be
extended using dynamically loaded modules, external scripts and commands.
Snmpd, when
enabled, should run with a default configuration. Its behavior can be customized via the options
in /etc/config/snmpd.conf.
Changing standard system information such as system contact, name and location can be
achieved by editing /etc/config/snmpd.conf file and locating the following lines:
sysdescr "tripplite"
syscontact root < root@localhost >(configure /etc/default/snmpd.conf)
sysname Not defined (edit /etc/default/snmpd.conf)
syslocation Not defined (edit /etc/default/snmpd.conf)
Simply change the values of sysdescr, syscontact, sysname and syslocation to the desired
settings and restart snmpd.
