community is 'yurapub' and server ip 172.21.0.204 and no encryption.

so i will give you more information.

# ls -l /usr/sbin/snmpd
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     system           19 Jan 22 18:00 /usr/sbin/snmpd -> /usr/sbin/snmpdv3ne

Hello,

Unfortunately we do not have an AIX system here and we don't support these systems as a result so you would need to find the resources about setting this up from IBM.

How to quickly setup SNMPv2c on AIX

Stop the related services
stopsrc -s aixmibd; stopsrc -s hostmibd; stopsrc -s snmpmibd; stopsrc -s snmpd
Make a backup of the configuration file
cp /etc/snmpdv3.conf snmpdv3.conf.YYYYMMDD_TTTT
Edit the configuration file
vi /etc/snmpdv3.conf
Add this to the bottom of the configuration file Change the community string MySNMPCommunityString
VACM_GROUP group2 SNMPv2c MySNMPCommunityString -
VACM_ACCESS group2 - - noAuthNoPriv SNMPv2c defaultView - defaultView -
COMMUNITY MySNMPCommunityString MySNMPCommunityString noAuthNoPriv 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 -
Start the SNMP services
startsrc -s aixmibd -a "-c MySNMPCommunityString"; startsrc -s hostmibd -a "-c MySNMPCommunityString"
startsrc -s snmpmibd -a "-c MySNMPCommunityString"; startsrc -s snmpd
Also modify the startup file so the changes survive a reboot.

vi /etc/rc.tcpip

Change:

# Start up the hostmibd daemon
start /usr/sbin/hostmibd "$src_running" "-c MySNMPCommunityString"
# Start up the snmpmibd daemon
start /usr/sbin/snmpmibd "$src_running" "-c MySNMPCommunityString"
# Start up the aixmibd daemon
start /usr/sbin/aixmibd "$src_running" "-c MySNMPCommunityString"
