The SNMP Agent plugin is an AgentX subagent that receives and handles queries from SNMP master agent and returns the data collected by read plugins. The SNMP Agent plugin handles requests only for OIDs specified in configuration file. To handle SNMP queries the plugin gets data from collectd and translates requested values from collectd's internal format to SNMP format.
This plugin is a generic plugin, i.e. it cannot work without configuration, because there is no reasonable default behavior. Please read the Plugin snmp_agent section of the collectd.conf(5) manual page for an in-depth description of the plugin's configuration.
