Step-by-step guide

Code Block
languagebash
themeRDark
root@linux# sudo apt install snmpd snmp


The file /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf contains the configuration of SNMPD. To query the SNMP from different sources, comment the below line:

Code Block
languagebash
themeRDark
title/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf
#agentaddress 127.0.0.1,[::1]


Restart the snmp service.

Code Block
languagebash
themeRDark
root@linux# /etc/init.d/snmpd restart


Now you can create a snmpwalk by using snmpbulkwalk.  This will work local as well as remote.

Code Block
languagebash
themeRDark
root@linux# snmpbulkwalk -v2c -c public mysnmpdtesthost01
