Download the latest rpm version of SNMP using the following URL:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/net-snmp/net-snmp-5.1.1-1.rh9.i686.rpm?download
Download the zip version of SNMP using the following URL:
http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/net-snmp/ucd-snmp-4.2.6.tar.gz
To install using the rpm, follow the steps given below:
Login as "root" user.
Before installing the
new version of net-snmp, you need to remove the earlier versions of net-snmp
in your machine. To list the versions of net-snmp installed in your machine,
execute the following command:
rpm -qa | grep "net-snmp"
If there are already
installed version in your machine, remove them using the command:
rpm -e <version of net-snmp listed as the output for previous command>
--nodeps
If there are no previously
installed versions in your machine, then execute the following command
to install the new version:
rpm -i <new downloaded version of SNMP agent> --nodeps

Execute the following four commands from the directory where you have extracted the ucd-snmp:
./configure
--prefix=<directory_name> --with-mib-modules="host"
directory_name
is the directory to install SNMP agent. Preferably choose a directory
under /root. The directories /usr and /local might contain the files of
