OCS Inventory SNMP return nothing

Question

Hello,

I have OCS Inventory with ARP enabled, and it works great. However, I’m trying to enable SNMP, and although everything seems configured correctly, it doesn’t work.

I tried running the agent locally with on a debian 12:

ocsinventory-agent --local=/tmp/

…but the result is the same: ARP works, but SNMP finds 0 OID.

Here is an example of the log:

[Tue Oct 28 16:48:18 2025][debug] [snmpscan] Scanning device 192.168.1.1

 [Tue Oct 28 16:48:18 2025][info] [snmpscan] No more SNMP device to scan 

[Tue Oct 28 16:48:18 2025][debug] checking XML

 [Tue Oct 28 16:48:18 2025][debug] sending XML

 [Tue Oct 28 16:48:18 2025][debug] sending: 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 

<REQUEST> 

<DEVICEID>example-01-2025-10-28-09-37-39</DEVICEID> 

<QUERY>SNMP</QUERY> 

</REQUEST>

Could you help me understand why SNMP is not returning any OID?

Thanks in advance!
