 ===== Asterisk SNMP Configuration =====
+Enable SNMP in Asterisk by editing ''/etc/asterisk/res_snmp.conf'' in the ''[general]'' section:
+  ;
+  ; Configuration file for res_snmp
+  ;---------------------------------
+  ;
+  ; -- snip --
+  [general]
+  ; We run as a subagent per default -- to run as a full agent
+  ; we must run as root (to be able to bind to port 161)
+  subagent = yes
+  ; SNMP must be explicitly enabled to be active
+  enabled = yes
+Apply the ''res_snmp.conf'' change in Asterisk, unload and load the ''res_snmp.so'' module, or restart the asterisk service.
