I'd like to monitor a Red-Hat Linux server over SNMP using the 'Linux Platform' connector.
I installed net-snmp on the sever and enabled it. It seems that only the standard SNMP parameters (Location, Description, ...) are available when performing an SNMP walk.
What settings are needed on the Linux server/net-snmp to also make available the parameters to monitor CPU, memory, task manager, disk, ...? Are there specific settings needed in the snmpd.conf file perhaps?

By default the snmpd.conf file presets the OID range you can poll. You can modify this range as shown to get access to other paramters. Look for the 'Access Control' section in the snmpd.conf file.

Great! I adapted that line in the snmpd.conf file and restarted the snmpd service and now everything is polling correctly. Thanks!
