I have a zabbix server, and I want to monitor an ubuntu 22.04 using SNMP

I used the following commands to install and set the snmp user for the ubuntu 22.04

$ sudo apt install snmp snmpd libsnmp-dev
$ net-snmp-create-v3-user -ro -a STrP@SSWRD -x STr0ngP@SSWRD -A SHA -X AES snmpadmin
$ sudo systemctl enable snmpd
$ sudo systemctl start snmpd

BUT, on the zabbix Frontend, when I create the host and set the credentials there, the SNMP icon turns RED

EVEN snmpwalk timedout

user@ubuntuserver:~$ sudo snmpwalk -v3 -a SHA -A STrP@SSWRD -x AES -X STr0ngP@SSWRD -l authPriv -u snmpadmin 192.168.240.188
snmpwalk: Timeout

I'm not using any type of firewall BTW.

Please Help!

Allow port 161 UDP in the firewall of the server you want to monitor to be accessed by zabbix server IP. If you have disabled firewall in the server to be monitored go to the snmpd.conf file find the line with agentaddress and put the IP address of the zabbix server and restart the service
