Beginners help til setup snmp(d)

Hi,

I have no clue to how one actually sets up snmp(d) locally so I can graph my CPU util. or other interesting stuff... Anyone know of a guide or basic .conf files that I can use so cacti can play around with snmp??

Would be appreciated..

HI,

What Distro are you using?

I know that myself using Debian, mostly woody some testing, I had to edit my snmpd.conf to allow access even from localhost.

Somthing like this:

Code: Select all

com2sec readonly  127.0.0.1      public

Gentoo..

All my conf files are per default empty... so I need a full config setup...

check /etc/conf.d/snmp[d]
and /etc/snmp/snmp.conf

docs are by default in /usr/share/doc/net-snmp-*

I believe there are some config examples in there as well

Okay - I got SNMP running now... but I can't get CPU info, but it detects my network interfaces (and collects data)

What MIB-thingies (still no direct clue to what that is..) should I add to snmpd.conf in order to collect CPU info?
