The snmpd is a link to either the snmpdv1 or the snmpdv3 binary, containing the respective daemons. You find the snmpdv3 on the expansion pack CD.
The snmpdv3 server supports SNMP protocols according to RFC 1157 (SNMP v1), RFC 1905 (v2) and RFC 2572 (v3). Note that you may need to start snmpmibd too (if you want to use the "distributed protocol interface", DPI (RFC1592)).
I hope this helps.

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone knows how can I send an SNMP Trap in Unix Environment(AIX) to another machine (NT/Ux) after having activated the SNMP in the AIX.
Can this be done by using a single command line or do I have to write a script for it?
Thanks in advance for your advices.

snmp_config(4) File Formats snmp_config(4)
NAME
snmp_config - overview of Net-SNMP configuration files
SYNOPSIS
snmp_config
DESCRIPTION
This page gives an overview of the various configuration files used by the Net-SNMP software that is shipped with the Solaris operating
system.
In a configuration file, lines beginning with a hash character (#) are treated as a comment and are not parsed.
Search Order
By default, the Net-SNMP applications look for configuration files in the following directories in the order listed:
1. /etc/sma/snmp
2. /usr/sfw/lib
3. $HOME/.snmp
In each of these directories, the Net-SNMP applications look for files with the extensions .conf and local.conf, in that order.
The default search path described above can be overridden by setting the environment variable SNMPCONFPATH to a colon-separated list of
directories. SNMPCONFPATH is used to allow users to place configuration files in specific directories for their application needs. Cur-
rently defaulted to /etc/sma/snmp and /usr/local/share/snmp.
Applications that store persistent data will also look in the /var/net-snmp directory for configuration files.
Switching Configuration Types in Mid-File
You can switch in mid-file the configuration type that the parser is supposed to be reading. For example, assume you want to turn on packet
dumping output for the agent by default, but you do not want to turn on packet dumping for the rest of the applications (such as snmpget
and snmpwalk). Normally, to enable packet dumping, you would enter a line such as the one below in the snmp.conf file:
dumpPacket true
Such a line turns on packet dumping for all of the applications. Instead, you can put the same line in the snmpd.conf file so that it
applies only to the snmpd daemon. However, you need to tell the parser to expect this line. You do this by putting a special, type-specifi-
cation token inside square brackets. For example, inside your snmpd.conf file you can enter:
[snmp] dumpPacket true
This tells the parser to parse the line as if it were inside a snmp.conf file instead of an snmpd.conf file. If you want to parse multiple
lines rather than just one, you can make the context switch apply to the remainder of the file or until the next context switch directive
by putting the special token on a line by itself:
# make this file handle snmp.conf tokens:
[snmp]
dumpPacket true
logTimestamp true
# return to our original snmpd.conf tokens:
[snmpd]
