How to configure SNMP

I try to capture the system utilization running on HP-UX 11.00 using the MRTG. I need the SNMP service to do so. When I type ps -ef |grep snmp, the system return me the /usr/sbin/snmpdm. Is this indicate that the SNMP is running? But I not able to capture the information from system using MRTG? What should I do?
Thanks for your help.

Yes, that means SNMP daemon is running. Take a look at /etc/snmpd.conf and find out the value of get-community-name. MRTG has to use the same community name to get any info.

Edit the snmpd.conf file to fill up get-community-name value. Solve the problem.
