OK, so I gathered from the responses that:



    - no integrated SNMP support from GUI

    - snmpd is included in the Fedora base upon which CCA is build



So, I did the following (on the CAS server):



#scp cam-test:/etc/snmp/snmpd.conf /etc/snmp

#service snmpd start

#chkconfig --level 3 snmpd on



Voila!



Thanks, everyone, for the tips...
