       NAME
             cpqsmuxd - Compaq Insight Manager SMUX peer

       SYNOPSIS
             cpqsmuxd

       DESCRIPTION
             cpqsmuxd implements the mechanism for communication between
             the SNMP daemon process in.snmpd, and the Compaq Insight
             Management (CIM) agents.  When started, cpqsmuxd connects with
             the in.snmpd daemon, registers the CIM MIB module, and starts
             three CIM collection agents.  cpqsmuxd is usually started at
             boot time by init with the initialization script
             /etc/rc2.d/S98cpqsmuxd.

             To connect with the in.snmpd daemon, cpqsmuxd reads the
             snmpd.peers file for authentication information.  For a
             successful initialization, the following line must be in
             /etc/inet/snmpd.peers:

                         cpqsmuxd 1.3.6.1.4.1.232 compaq_passwd

             where cpqsmuxd is the name of the SMUX  peer,  1.3.6.1.4.1.232
             is  the  object-id  in  dot  notation  of  the  SMUX peer, and
             compaq_passwd is an unencrypted  password  used  by  the  SNMP
             authentication schemes.

             The configuration file /usr/bin/compaq/smux/config can be used
             to  start  CIM  data  collection  agents which are not started
             automatically at boot time by init.  If a  line  in  the  file
             begins  with agent = , anything to the right of the equal sign
             (=) is treated as  a  command  with  arguments,  and  will  be
             executed by the cpqsmuxd process. If a line begins with mail =
             , anything to the right of the equal sign (=) is treated as  a
             command  with  arguments  and  will  be  used  by the cpqsmuxd
             process to send notification  when  a  trap  event  occurs.  C
             language  style  comments  are allowed in this file, and white
             space is ignored.

             By default, the Host Agent (os_agent), the Standard  Equipment
             Agent  (stdeq_agent),  and  the Alarm Agent (alarm_agent), are
             started  by  cpqsmuxd  by   the   following   lines   in   the
             /usr/bin/compaq/smux/config file:

                         agent = "os/os_agent" -p 15 -s OK -t OK;
                         agent = "stdeq/stdeq_agent" -p 60 -s OK -t OK;

      cpqsmuxd(1M)                                            cpqsmuxd(1M)


                        agent = "alarm/alarm_agent" -p 1  -s OK -t OK;

            See each agent's  manual  page  for  a  description  of  these
            command line arguments.

            The default command used to  send  notification  when  a  trap
            occurs  is  also  specified in the /usr/bin/compaq/smux/config
            as:

                        mail = "/bin/mail -s'Compaq Insight Manager Trap Alarm' root";

            Accordingly, the root user will receive  mail  when  an  alarm
            event occurs [see alarm_agent(1M)].

      NOTICES
            This command is only supported on applicable Compaq systems.
            Refer to the Administration Supplement for Compaq Systems for

            In order for a management station to alter a value of a MIB
            variable registered by the cpqsmuxd daemon, the session
            configuration file, snmpd.comm, must have an entry containing
            adequate privileges for that station.
