'yum install net-snmp-utils' will not install snmpd (at least on CentOS 6). 'yum install net-snmp net-snmp-utils' will do.

This article describes how to setup the snmp agent on RHEL or Centos. Not how to retrive data from your router.

Hi Anders,

No I do not. Avoid traps is my answer. Traps looks like a good idea but in the long term it takes away the responsibility from the owner of the problem to the poor person that handles the monitor system.

Read my general monitoring guideline:-)

Is there any way to get around the dependency on lm_sensors? I am not comfortable installing this highly insecure package on my servers.
