NAME

atmsnmpd − ATM SNMP agent daemon

SYNOPSIS

/opt/SUNWatm/bin/atmsnmpd [ −p port ] [ −c config-file ] [ −T trace-level ]

AVAILABILITY

SUNWatmu

DESCRIPTION

The ATM SNMP agent daemon, atmsnmpd, provides a SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) agent which supports the ATM UNI and LAN Emulation Management Information Bases (MIBs) defined in the User Network Interface and LAN Emulation Specifications. This agent provides information to a Network Management System, such as SunNet Manager.

The ATM SNMP agent must be the only SNMP agent on the system. Unless otherwise specified, all agents use the same port number, so a system can only support a single agent. If other agents are installed on your system, atmsnmpd will exit with an error or cause the other agent to fail.

If you choose to configure your system as an ATM SNMP agent when installing the SUNWatmu package, the software will be configured to automatically start atmsnmpd at boot time by the Sun ATM boot script, S60sunatm.

The default configuration information for the SunATM SNMP agent may be found in the daemon’s configuration file, /etc/atmsnmp/agent.cnf. Any changes to the defaults may be made in this file; atmsnmpd must be restarted for any changes to take effect. In particular, the default community values are public for read and private for write.

OPTIONS

-p port Defines an alternative UDP port on which atmsnmpd listens for incoming requests. The default is UDP port 161.

-c config-file
Defines a configuration file that is read when the agent starts up. If a configuration file is not specified the file /etc/atmsnmp/agent.cnf is used.

-T trace-level
Sets trace levels. A value of 0 disables all tracing and is the default. Levels 1 through 3 represent increasing levels of trace output. Trace output is sent to the standard output in effect at the time atmsnmpd is started.

FILES

/etc/atmsnmp/agent.cnf Contains SunATM SNMP agent configuration information
