net-snmp on fun_plug

I have ZyXEL NSA 320 at home so I wanted to use it's full capability, first step was to get "linux" there, first and for the moment last choice was FFP (Funz Fun Plug).

As far as I'm working in network monitoring other interest of mine was if I can have SNMP agent running there and yes I could, here is short guide how to install it. It's nothing hard.

1) Download and install net-snmp for ffp

wget http://inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/0.5/extra-packages/All/net-snmp-5.5-1.tgz

funpkg -i net-snmp-5.5-1.tgz

2) Configure net-snmp, best way to do so is use snmpconf program, which is menu based commandline interface which helps you to setup snmp deamon. More info can be find here http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/tutorial/tutorial-5/demon/snmpd.html

3) Start snmp deamon during start of system

#!/ffp/bin/sh
# PROVIDE: snmpd
. /ffp/etc/ffp.subr
name="snmpd"
command="/ffp/sbin/snmpd"
telnetd_flags="-l /ffp/bin/sh"
run_rc_command "$1"

4) Start snmpd deamon and check if it works. See example bellow, don't forget to change IP and community to correspond to your own settings.
