2.7 Customizing the configuration file (/etc/SnmpAgent.d/snmpd.conf)

The configuration file (/etc/SnmpAgent.d/snmpd.conf) is used to define an environment for SNMP Agent. If this file does not exist, SNMP Agent will not run.

In the configuration file (/etc/SnmpAgent.d/snmpd.conf), specify the following information:

• System contact and system location

• Community name

• Trap destinations

SNMP Agent provides the configuration file (/etc/SnmpAgent.d/snmpd.conf). This file already contains definition information. Customize the file, if necessary.

For details about the contents of the configuration file (/etc/SnmpAgent.d/snmpd.conf), see 2.7.7 Format of the configuration file.
