Disabling SNMP on a CSN

To disable SNMP on a CSN (prevent it from responding to SNMP requests), follow this process:

Comment out these three lines in this file: /etc/monit.d/caringo-csn.monitrc

check process snmpd with pidfile "/var/run/snmpd.pid"
start program = "/etc/init.d/snmpd start"
stop program = "/etc/init.d/snmpd stop"

Turn off the snmpd process:
```
chkconfig snmpd off
```
Reboot the CSN.
After the reboot finishes, verify that port 161 is not listening.
```
netstat -an | grep 161
```

Note

This does not disable SNMP on the storage nodes themselves. This is specifically to stop the CSN from responding to SNMP requests.
