15.5.4 /etc/config/snmpd.conf

The net-snmpd is an extensible SNMP which includes built-in support for a wide range of MIB information modules, and can
be extended using dynamically loaded modules, external scripts and commands. snmpd when enabled should run with a
default configuration. Its behavior can be customized via the options in /etc/config/snmpd.conf.
Note: If the SNMP Service is enabled through the Web Based Management Console this configuration file will be overidden
and you will lose any customization.
Changing standard system information such as system contact, name and location can be achieved by editing
/etc/config/snmpd.conf file and locating the following lines:
sysdescr "tripplite"
syscontact root <root@localhost>(configure /etc/default/snmpd.conf)
sysname Not defined (edit /etc/default/snmpd.conf)
syslocation Not defined (edit /etc/default/snmpd.conf)
Simply change the values of sysdescr, syscontact, sysname and syslocation to the desired settings and restart snmpd.
The snmpd.conf provides is extremely powerful and too flexible to completely cover here. The configuration file itself is
commented extensively and good documentation is available at the net-snmp website http://www.net-snmp.org, specifically:
