  I noticed that 3.3 has an entry for SNMP (Simple Network Management
  Protocol) in the /etc/services file, but I couldn't find an associated
  daemon. Questions:

	Does it make sense to get SNMP data from a host that's not 
	a gateway?

	Does sgi have a daemon/program that answers SNMP queries?
	Can I get it without paying $8,000 for the Whizzy Graphical
	Interface Network Management program?

  I'm pretty new to SNMP so any answers would be greatly appreciated.
