NAME
     peer_snmpd - Simple Network Management Protocol daemon

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/etc/peersnmpd config-file parameter-file

DESCRIPTION
     peer_snmpd is a daemon which implements versions one and two (V1 and V2p)
     of the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) as specified in Internet
     RFC series 1441-1452.  The daemon, called the SNMP agent, can be
     configured to run from the network startup script at boot time by the
     command chkconfig snmpd on or started from the command line.  You must be
     superuser (root) to run peer_snmpd.  peer_snmpd listens on a udp(7P)
     socket for the snmp service for SNMP queries.  If no such service can be
     found, a default port of 161 is used.

     The configuration file (typically /etc/peer_snmpd_config) is read at
     startup to determine behavior, and the parameters file (typically
     /etc/peer_nov) is used to store the values of setable variables in the
     Management Information Base (MIB).  The snmp startup script reads the
     file /etc/config/peer_snmpd.options to determine these parameters at
     boot.

SECURITY
     peer_snmpd is a bilingual SNMP Agent that implements Community String
     based security (SNMPv1 packets) as well Party based security (SNMPv2p
     packets).  Please see peersnmpdconfig(4) for v1 configuring community
     strings and v2 parties.
