Step # 1 : Make sure snmp server installed

# rpm -qa | grep snmp


# yum install net-snmp-utils net-snmp


Step # 2 : Determine if snmp server is running or not
Run 'ps' command to see if snmp server is running or not:

# ps -aux | grep snmp


Output:

root   5512  0.0  2.3  5872 3012 pts/0    S    22:04   0:00 /usr/sbin/snmpd

Alternatively, you can try any of the following two commands as well:

# lsof -i :199


Output:

COMMAND  PID USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME
snmpd   5512 root    4u  IPv4  34432       TCP *:smux (LISTEN)

OR try out netstat command:

# netstat -natv | grep ':199'


Output:

tcp        0      0 0.0.0.0:199             0.0.0.0:*               LISTEN

If you found service is running or listing on port 199 then please see step #3; otherwise start service using following command:

# service snmpd start


Make sure snmpd service starts automatically, when linux comes us (add snmpd service):

# chkconfig --add snmpd


Step # 3 : Make sure snmp server configured properly
Run snmpwalk utility to request for tree of information about network entity. In simple words query snmp server for your IP address (assigned to eth0, eth1, lo etc):

# snmpwalk -v 1 -c public localhost IP-MIB::ipAdEntIfIndex


ip.ipAddrTable.ipAddrEntry.ipAdEntIfIndex.127.0.0.1 = 1
ip.ipAddrTable.ipAddrEntry.ipAdEntIfIndex.192.168.0.3 = 2

If you can see your IP address then please proceed to step 4; else it is a time to configure snmp server as follows (by default RHEL and RH 8/9 are not configured for snmp server for security reason):
Configure SNMP
(1) Edit file/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf using text editor:

# vi /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf


Change/Modify line(s) as follows:
Find following Line:

com2sec notConfigUser  default       public


Replace with (make sure you replace 192.168.0.0/24 replace with your network IPs) following lines:

com2sec local     localhost           public
com2sec mynetwork 192.168.0.0/24      public


Scroll down bit and change:
Find Lines:

group   notConfigGroup v1           notConfigUser
group   notConfigGroup v2c           notConfigUser


Replace with:

group MyRWGroup v1         local
group MyRWGroup v2c        local
group MyRWGroup usm        local
group MyROGroup v1         mynetwork
group MyROGroup v2c        mynetwork
group MyROGroup usm        mynetwork


Again scroll down bit and locate following line:
Find line:

view    systemview     included      system


Replace with:

view all    included  .1                               80


Again scroll down bit and change:
Find line:

access  notConfigGroup ""      any       noauth    exact  systemview none none


Replace with:

access MyROGroup ""      any       noauth    exact  all    none   none
access MyRWGroup ""      any       noauth    exact  all    all    none


Scroll down bit and change:
Find lines:

syslocation Unknown (edit /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf)
syscontact Root  (configure /etc/snmp/snmp.local.conf)


Replace with (make sure you supply appropriate values):

syslocation Linux (RH3_UP2), Home Linux Router.
syscontact Vivek G Gite 


For your convenient, here is my/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file. Feel free to use this file. Make sure you make backup of your existing file if you use this file as it is.
Start your snmp server and test it:
(a) Make sure when linux comes up snmpd always starts:

 # chkconfig snmpd on


(b) Make sure service start whenever Linux comes up (after reboot):

 # service snmpd start


(c) Finally test your snmp server:

 # snmpwalk -v 1 -c public localhost IP-MIB::ipAdEntIfIndex


Step # 4 : Install mrtg if not installed
Mrtg software may install during initial installation; you can verify if MRTG installed or not with following RPM command:

rpm -qa | grep mrtg


If mrtg already installed please see step # 5; else use rpmfind.net to find MRTG rpm or up2date command to install MRTG software:

# up2date -v -i mrtg


Fedora Linux user can use yum command as follows to install MRTG:

# yum install mrtg


Step # 5 : Commands to Configure mrtg
(a) Create document root to store mrtg graphs/html pages:

# mkdir -p /var/www/html/mymrtg/


(b) Run any one of the following cfgmaker command to create mrtg configuration file:

# cfgmaker --global 'WorkDir: /var/www/html/mymrtg' --output /etc/mrtg/mymrtg.cfg public@localhost


OR (make sure your FQDN resolves, in following example i'm using rh9.test.com which is my router FQDN address)

# cfgmaker --global 'WorkDir: /var/www/html/mymrtg' --output /etc/mrtg/mymrtg1.cfg [email protected]


(c) Create default index page for your MRTG configuration:

# indexmaker --output=/var/www/html/mymrtg/index.html /etc/mrtg/mymrtg.cfg

(d) Copy all tiny png files to your mrtg path:

# cp -av /var/www/mrtg/*.png /var/www/html/mymrtg/


Step # 6 First test run of mrtg
(a) Run mrtg command from command line with your configuration file:

# env LANG=C /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg/mymrtg.cfg
# /etc/init.d/httpd start



Note: You may get few warning message for first time; ignore them.and run it three time
(b) Fire your favorite web browser (like FireFox :D ) and type url http://www.your.com/mymrtg/or http://your-ip/mymrtg/
Step # 7 Create crontab entry so that mrtg graph/p_w_picpaths get generated every 5 minutes
(a) Login as a root user or login as a mrtg user and type following command:

# crontab -e


(b) Add mrtg cron job entry to configuration file (append following line to it):

*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg/mymrtg.cfg --logging /var/log/mrtg.log


Save file and you are done with MRTG config issues :)
Step # 8 Block ports 161 & 162 at firewall
You do not want to give access to everyone to your snmp server for security reasons. SNMP server uses UDP 161, 162 ports for communication. Use Linux IPTABLES firewall to restrict access to SNMP server
(a) Allow outgoing SNMP server request from your Linux computer. This is useful when you query remote host/router (replace SERVER IO with your real IP):

SERVER="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
iptables -A OUTPUT -p udp -s $SERVER --sport 1024:65535 -d 0/0 --dport 161:162 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p udp -s 0/0 --sport 161:162 -d $SERVER --dport 1024:65535 -m state --state ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT


(b )Allow incoming SNMP client request via iptables. This is useful when you wish to accept queries for rest of the world (replace SERVER IP with your real IP):

SERVER="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
iptables -A INPUT -p udp -s 0/0 --sport 1024:65535 -d $SERVER --dport 161:162 -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -p udp -s $SERVER --sport 161:162 -d 0/0 --dport 1024:65535 -m state --state ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT


Pleae note that above two are just SNMP specific iptables rules. Please consult iptables(8) man page for complete information on iptables
Step # 9 Optional: Protect your MRTG graphs/html pages with password protected directory
Once again, you would like to restrict access to your MRTG reports. This can easily accomplished with Apache webserver's .htaccess file. If you are on webhosting server with control panel (such as ensim or plesk) then you can use control panel itself to create password-protected directory.
Below is process outlined to protect graphs using apache's .htaccess file and htpasswd command:
Step # 1: Create .htaccess file in/var/www/html/mymrtg/directory (add text as follows):

vi /var/www/html/mymrtg/.htaccess


Add following text to file:

AuthName "MRTG Graphs/Html restricted access"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /var/members/.htpasswd
require user mrtgadmin


Step # 2: Create a user and password name (-c assumes first time you are using .htpasswd file):

# htpasswd -c /var/members/.htpasswd mrtgadmin
