snmp check

[Morris, Patrick]

The community string is basically a password -- if you don't know it,
you won't be able to get it without looking in the configurations of the
machines you're trying to monitor.

Many machines will default to "public."  If that's not it, however,
you're going to need to ask whoever maintains the configuration of those
machines to tell you what the community string.
