- You can verify if the service is running by running the following command:
systemctl status snmpd
- The SNMP configuration usually resides in
/etc/snmp/snmpd.conffor v1 and v2 of the SNMP protocol. If v3 is going to be used, as recommended, additional configuration is located at/var/lib/net-snmp/snmpd.conf. This file does not save changes while the daemon is running, so the daemon needs to be stopped before modifying the file.
