SNMPD(8)		OpenBSD System Manager's Manual		      SNMPD(8)

NAME
     snmpd - Simple Network Management Protocol daemon

SYNOPSIS
     snmpd [-dNnv] [-D macro=value] [-f file] [-r path]

DESCRIPTION
     snmpd is a daemon which implements the SNMP protocol.

     The options are as follows:

     -D macro=value
	     Define macro to be set to value on the command line.  Overrides
	     the definition of macro in the configuration file.

     -d	     Do not daemonize and log to stderr.

     -f file
	     Use file as the configuration file, instead of the default
	     /etc/snmpd.conf.

     -N	     Show numeric OID values instead of their symbolic names.

     -n	     Configtest mode.  Only check the configuration file for validity.

     -r path
	     Open a second, restricted, control socket that snmpctl(8) can
	     use.  Only trap requests are allowed on this socket.

     -v	     Produce more verbose output.

     /etc/snmpd.conf		default snmpd configuration file
