How to get system informations by using SNMP?

[piffta]

Hi,
I have Zabbix 1.8.1 installed on CentOS machine.
I want to use SNMP to connect on Zabbix to get some system performance information (e.g. CPU load).
I’m using Java (SNMP4j library) to execute SNMP GET operation.

Could I do this without using Zabbix agent? Could I get some examples how I can do that?

Thanks in advance.

You don't need the zabbix_agent if monitoring by snmp.

But, you must have ./configured zabbix with-net-snmp.
