gated SNMP protocol statement
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is not
a routing protocol
but a network management protocol. The snmp statement controls whether
gated tries to contact the SNMP daemon
(snmpd) to register supported
variables. The SNMP daemon must be run independently. The
snmp statement only controls whether
gated keeps the management software
apprised of its status.
gated communicates with the SNMP daemon via the SMUX protocol that is described in RFC 1227.
snmp yes | no | on | off [ { preference preference ; traceoptions traceoptions ; port port ; } ] ;Reporting is enabled by specifying yes or on and disabled with no or off. The default is on.
