The following packages are recommende to be installed:

- snmp-export - on the machine where scraping should be actually done.
- snmp-export-cfg - on the machine, which has net-snmp installed and
  snmp-export files should be generated by snmp-export-cfg.

One should create a generator config file (see README-config.md) and than
generate a snmp-export file as needed , copy it to its final location,
change the startup parameters of the snmp-export service accordingly and
finally start it (if needed). Per default the service will use the file
/etc/snmp-export-default.yml which is probably not what you want (and gets
usually overriden/removed on each [un-]install/update unconditionally).

Generate the exporter config file e.g. like this:
  snmp-export-cfg generate -f /tmp/test.yml -o /tmp/snmp-export.yml
  scp /tmp/snmp-export.yml scraping-host:/etc/snmp-export.yml

And on the scraping-host e.g. on Solaris:
  svccfg -s snmp-export 'setprop config/file = "/etc/snmp-export.yml"'
  svccfg -s snmp-export refresh
  svcadm enable snmp-export

Or on Linux:
  echo 'CFG=/etc/snmp-export.yml' | sudo tail -a /etc/default/snmp-export
  sudo enable snmp-export
  sudo start snmp-export
