• Using SNMP proxy on Debian
• SNMP Proxy

IP range to call from: 192.168.0.0/16 Hosts to monitor: swa and swb ( 10.1.0.1x )

On the host used as proxy:

view all included .1
group ACCSRV v2c notConfigUser
com2sec -Cn wasrv notConfigUser 192.168.0.0/16 swa
com2sec -Cn wbsrv notConfigUser 192.168.0.0/16 swb
access ACCSRV wasrv any noauth prefix all none none
access ACCSRV wbsrv any noauth prefix all none none
proxy -Cn wasrv -v 2c -c public 10.1.0.11 .1.3
proxy -Cn wbsrv -v 2c -c public 10.1.0.12 .1.3

Then from your 192.168.0.0/16 network:

snmpwalk -v 2c -c swa yoursnmpproxyserver
