- Please note the following customizations of the Net-SNMP packages for
- Debian.
-
- The default configuration disables SMUX support and binds the SNMP port
- to 127.0.0.1. Please configure /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf, /etc/hosts.allow
- and /etc/hosts.deny first to set up who can access the SNMP daemon, then
- edit /etc/default/snmpd and remove 127.0.0.1 from SNMPDOPTS.
-
- To enable SMUX again, remove "-I -smux" from SNMPDOPTS and eventually
- bind it to localhost by adding "smuxsocket 127.0.0.1" to
- /etc/snmpd/snmpd.conf.
-
- The default configuration for snmpd is rather paranoid for security
- reasons. Edit /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf or run snmpconf to allow greater
- access.
-
- The snmpconf program provides a simple, menu driven way of configuring
- the snmp applications and daemons.
-
- You can individually control whether or not snmpd and snmpdtrap are
- run by editing /etc/default/snmp. In addition, neither daemon will be
- run if its config file /etc/snmp is removed.
-
- As of net-snmp version 5.0, master agentx support must be enabled in
- snmpd before snmptrapd can be run. See snmpd.conf(5) for how to do
- this.
-
- As of net-snmp version 5.0, the community string can no longer be
- specified after the agent parameter on the command line. It must now
- be specified with the -c option. Please see snmpcmd(1) for more
- information.
-
- snmpd is built with TCP Wrappers. Make sure your /etc/hosts.allow and
- /etc/hosts.deny files account for this.
