Coexistence with the HP SNMP Agent

HP-UX systems ship with an extensible agent and subagents that provide support for MIB-II and the HP private-enterprise MIB. The master/subagent interface is based on a proprietary API that the SystemEDGE agent does not support.

Take either of the following coexistence approaches:

• Run the HP and SystemEDGE agents together on the system, running the SystemEDGE agent on port UDP/1691.
• Turn off or disable the HP master or subagent and run the SystemEDGE agent on port UDP/161. Replacing the native agent during installation implements this approach.
