By default, the SNMP queries (walk, get) can be executed from any remote machine without any changes to the snmpd.conf file. To quickly add a new community and client access, perform the following steps:
a. Add a read-only community name and client/hostname/ipaddress under "SECTION: Access Control Setup" in the /etc/sma/snmp/snmpd.conf file, as shown in the following excerpt:#################################################
# SECTION: Access Control Setup
#This section defines who is allowed to talk to your # running SNMP Agent.
# rocommunity: a SNMPv1/SNMPv2c read-only access
# community name
# arguments: community
# [default|hostname|network/bits] [oid]
# rocommunity snmpclient 172.28.157.149
#################################################
b. Add a read-write community name and client/hostname/ipaddress under "SECTION: Access Control Setup" in the /etc/sma/snmp/snmpd.conf file, as shown in the following excerpt:#################################################
# SECTION: Access Control Setup
# This section defines who is allowed to talk to your # running
# snmp agent.
# rocommunity: a SNMPv1/SNMPv2c read-only access
# community name
# arguments: community
# [default|hostname|network/bits] [oid]
# rwcommunity snmpclient 172.28.157.149
