.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm
is a program that serves basic system parameters to clients using the
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 1 or 2c.
.Pp
By default
.Nm
starts in the background, detaching from the controlling terminal, like
a traditional UNIX daemon. Modern init systems may require services to
run in the foreground, to that end the
.Fl n
option in combination with the
.Fl s
option to enable logging using syslog.
.Pp
The default vendor OID is only a placeholder where you need to insert
the PEN (private enterprise number) of your organization. If you do not
have one you can get one assigned by the Internet Assigned Numbers
Authority (IANA), free of charge. See their PEN application web page at
.Xr http://pen.iana.org/ .
