e appropriate location (note: Don't use
a location like file://..., but http://...!).  You should neither see the
C<ep-perl> nor the C<print> instructions.

After this is done, select a password protected directory and put
the files from the "html" directory into it. That's all.

You might start the "snmpmon" utility when the system comes up.
See "Starting the monitor" and "Stopping the monitor" below for
instructions what to perform when booting or shutting down.

Finally you should manually edit the configuration file. This is
by default located in

    /etc/snmpmon/configuration

but you might have choosen another location while installing the
module. Note that what you are editing is Perl source! You are
bound to the restrictions and you have all the power of Perl in
this file. However, when done editing, do yourself a favour and
check, whether you have created correct Perl code again by doing
a

    perl -e 'require "/etc/snmpmon/configuration"; print "ok\n"'

For a detailed description of the configuration file, see

    perldoc SNMP::Monitor::Install


4.) Adding routers

While installing the SNMP::Monitor package, a file like
"/etc/snmpmon/configuration" should have been created for you.
Typically it includes one router. Of course you are by no means
restricted to a single router: You can add more routers at any
time by doing a

    snmpmon --add <routername>


5.) Removing routers

When playing with the configuration file, you might need to remove
a router. This can be done with

    snmpmon --remove <routername>


6.) Starting the monitor

Once you have initialized the system, try a

    snmpmon --start

or

    snmpmon start

If something goes wrong, you should receive an email that tells
you an error message.


7.) Shutting down the monitor

When the system is shutting down, you can do a

    snmpmon --stop

or

    snmpmon stop

Note, that no accounting information is created in that time!
