For our final project we will install an snmp agent on Ubuntu

• Update all packages: sudo apt-get update
• Install SNMP: sudo apt-get install snmpd
• Edit snmpd.conf with text editor of your choice

e.g.

sudo nano /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf

• Your agent address should look like this

#agentAddress udp:127.0.0.1:161
# Listen for connections on all interfaces (both IPv4 *and* IPv6)
agentAddress udp:161,udp6:[::1]:161

-This will set the server to listen on all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
-For higher security bind to your IP address. Ex: agentAddress udp:192.168.1.5:161

• Leave the configuration of as is

rocommunity: rocommunity public

• Restart the SNMPD service: sudo service snmpd restart
• On the client side we will be using a free product called ManageEngine

Please install ManageEngine

NOTE: On windows I could not install into the default c:Program Files location. At this location the program will generate an error when trying to updates/load MIBs because you probably do not have admin privlidges to write to c:Program Files

Instead, install ManageEngine to any directory for which you will have privlidges to read/ write the MIB database
