| Try this...
Go into UCX and try
UCX> LOOP "Xhost123"
(should say Xhost is alive)
make sure you enclose the host name in quotes oir UCX will
upper case it on you.
Go into DECmcc ($MANAGE/ENTERPRISE) and try
MCC> SHOW SNMP Xhost123 ALL ATTRIBUTES
post the results.

| John,
I went into UCX and received this message:
%UCX-I-LOOPACT, XHOST123 IS alive.
MCC> Show snmp XHOST123 all attributes.
SNMP XHOST123
AT 27-AUG-1991 13:55 ALL ATTRIBUTES
No response from entity
MCC>
The command worked for the Chipcom box I have registered.
Thanks

| 1398.3 | Does it have an SNMP Agent? | ALLZS::BRIENEN | DECmcc Bridge|Station|SNMP Management. | Tue Aug 27 1991 16:35 | 9 |
| Might as well ask...
Are you sure that the SUN SPARC system you're accessing has an
SNMP Agent?
LOOP probably just does an ICMP ping, which doesn't means the
system is there but not necessarily "speaking" SNMP.

| 1398.4 | snmp Agent? | DWOMV2::FILLMAN | | Tue Aug 27 1991 17:07 | 4 |
| Chris,
I don't know what you mean about an SNMP agent. Is that like a MIB?

| A SNMP agent is a piece of software which runs on the SUN machine
and responds to your SNMP queries. If this software is not there
you cannot register the machine.

| 1398.6 | Any one know unix? | DWOMV2::FILLMAN | | Wed Aug 28 1991 09:48 | 7 |
| Unfortunately, the customer knows very little about their Suns because
they are supported remotely. I have an account on the Suns but am
not of the unix world, so does anyone know how to check if an SNMP
agent is present?
Thanks,
Harry

| On a BSD Unix system, a process named "snmpd" is the agent. You might
look at the Sun to see if a similar process is running.
login
ps -aux <- will list all processes on the system
There is a utility /etc/snmpsetup that configures and sets up the
snmpd process.
How all this might vary under SunOS I don't know but it's a start.

| 1398.8 | keep trying! | DWOMV2::FILLMAN | | Wed Aug 28 1991 16:46 | 5 |
| I checked on one of the suns and there were no processes name snmp*.
I will try to dig into the books and find if it is a separate piece
of software they have to buy or install.

| 1398.9 | The plot thickens.. | SUBWAY::REILLY | Mike Reilly - New York Bank District | Wed Aug 28 1991 19:01 | 8 |
| I called SUN's technical support line. It appears you need to
purchase Sun Netmanager to get a copy of their agent software. (No
wonder SNM's sales are so high !!). It might be worth investigating if
the SNMP agent on the ISODE kit runs on Sparc machines. ISODE is
available from University of Pennsylvania for approx $400.

| 1398.10 | There might be another out... | TOOK::MINTZ | Erik Mintz | Wed Aug 28 1991 23:25 | 4 |
| You might check in the MKNME::SNMP or APPLE::MSU notes conference
to see if an SNMP agent for the system you are using is available
from a DEC service organization.

| 1398.11 | Possible protection problem | SNOC01::MISNETWORK | They call me LAT | Thu Aug 29 1991 08:27 | 15 |
| Recently I installed the SNMP agent on a SUN Sparcstation, but have
been unable to talk to it from MCC. I checked the file /etc/snmpd.conf
and found the following lines -
community DEC 16.153.0.42 read-write
community public 0.0.0.0 read-only
community trap1 16.153.0.42 traps
16.153.0.42 is the address of my SUN box, should the "public" line have
different protection ?
Cheers,
Louis

| 1398.12 | trap1=DECmcc box | SNOC01::MISNETWORK | They call me LAT | Thu Aug 29 1991 09:01 | 4 |
| Is the address for trap1 supposed to be that of my DECmcc box ?
Cheers,
Louis

| 1398.13 | You should be able to do shows without any problem. | YAHEY::BOSE | | Thu Aug 29 1991 10:08 | 31 |

>> and found the following lines -

This means that the agent will allow read-write access to node 16.153.0.42
using the community name "DEC", (specified in the "by password"
qualifier in FCL).
>> community public 0.0.0.0 read-only
This means that all nodes using the community name "public" has read-only
access
>> community trap1 16.153.0.42 traps
Traps can be received only by node 16.153.0.42 using community name
"trap1"

No. You should be able to do shows from MCC with the current set-up.
The problem lies somewhere else. You can trying doing a ping to the
agent. If that works I'd check if the snmpd daemon is running on the
Sparcstation.
Rahul.
