Log onto the operator station using telnet

Go to the /etc/rc.config.d directory:

cd /etc/rc.config.d

Edit the following files using vi:

• SnmpHpunix
• SnmpMaster
• SnmpMib2

Vi isn’t easy to use, I suggest you check out http://csep1.phy.ornl.gov/unix_guide/node13.html or http://thomer.com/vi/vi.html

In each file change the line:

SNMP_HPUNIX_START=0

to

SNMP_HPUNIX_START=1
 

Now start the Snmp daemon from the shell:

snmpd

It’s now working, check it is by either using top or:

ps -ef | grep snmpd
