Configuring the SNMP Agent on Systems Running Supported Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Server Administrator uses the SNMP services provided by the ucd-snmp or net-snmp SNMP agent.
You can configure the SNMP agent to change the community name, enable Set operations, and send
traps to a management station. To configure your SNMP agent for proper interaction with management
applications such as IT Assistant, perform the procedures described in the following sections.
NOTE: See your operating system documentation for additional details on SNMP configuration.
SNMP Agent Access Control Configuration
The management information base (MIB) branch implemented by Server Administrator is identified by
the 1.3.6.1.4.1.674 OID. Management applications must have access to this branch of the MIB tree to
manage systems running Server Administrator.
