Here is how to verify snmpd service on openSUSE and SUSE Enterprise Linux:

sudo systemctl cat snmpd.service 

# /usr/lib/systemd/system/snmpd.service
[Unit]
Description=Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Daemon.
After=syslog.target network.target

[Service]
Type=notify
Environment=OPTIONS="-LS0-6d"
EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/snmpd
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/snmpd $OPTIONS -f
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Restarting NSMPD on SUSE Linux

sudo systemctl restart snmpd.service

Verification is easy too:

sudo systemctl status snmpd.service

Dealing with Trap Daemon

List it:

sudo  systemctl cat snmptrapd.service

# /usr/lib/systemd/system/snmptrapd.service
[Unit]
Description=Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Trap Daemon.
After=syslog.target network.target

[Service]
Type=notify
Environment=OPTIONS="-Lsd"
EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/snmptrapd
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/snmptrapd $OPTIONS -f
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Restart the SNMP Trap Daemon:

sudo  systemctl restart snmptrapd.service
sudo  systemctl status snmptrapd.service

Use keywords such as stop, start, restart and status for all your systemct services.
