Hello,

Personally, I don't have good experience with  the Enterprise Agent
that comes with Solaris. The configuration is too complicated and it does
behave a bit funny...

I strongly suggest using NET-SNMP (formerly UCD-SNMP) agent instead.
However, you will probably have to compile it yourself. You can download
the sources from http://net-snmp.sourceforge.net/.
