snmp is not working on remote host machine


hi all,

my snmp is working fine on localhost.
but this snmp is not working on remote host machine(ipv4 & ipv6 both).
means when i run "snmpwalk -v2c -c public 2001:468::2 system "
it show "timeout: NO response from 2001:468::2"

my ip addtess is :-2001:468::2(ipv6 only).
my os is ubuntu 8.04.



/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file is lool like:-
------------------------------------------------------------------------
###########################################################################
#
# snmpd.conf
#
# - created by the snmpconf configuration program
#
###########################################################################
# SECTION: Access Control Setup

# This section defines who is allowed to talk to your running
# snmp agent.

# rocommunity: a SNMPv1/SNMPv2c read-only access community name
# arguments: community [default|hostname|network/bits] [oid]

rocommunity public

###########################################################################

# the "system" mib group in the mibII tree.

# syslocation: The [typically physical] location of the system.

# the agent return the "notWritable" error code. IE, including
# this token in the snmpd.conf file will disable write access to
# the variable.
# arguments: location_string

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

# syscontact: The contact information for the administrator
# Note that setting this value here means that when trying to
# perform an snmp SET operation to the sysContact.0 variable will make
# the agent return the "notWritable" error code. IE, including

syscontact Root <root@localhost> (configure /etc/snmp/snmpd.local.conf)

Do you see any errors in the logs on the remote system? What OS is the remote system running? Can you ping and/or otherwise access the remote machine?

Check the status of the SNMP daemon on the remote machine (usually by "/etc/init.d/snmpd status"), and start it if it's not running. Check the log files, and see if you're getting any errors.

Hi,

A little more information would be great. OS/Distribution for each? Do you have ipv6 setup, you show a IP but does the device show it? Does the remote support ipv6 or just ipv4? Check this for your local by using 'ifconfig -a' to see if you have your IP addresses.

Plus, please place any data or posted information within vbcode tags. You can use the code tag (#) or the quote tag that is to the left of the (code) # tag at the top of your reply window. Your post(s) will be easier to read if you use the code tags.
