    Arun,

    Hi, good day to you.

    The simplest way to resolve this is to get DNF installed (https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/aix-toolbox-open-source-software-get-started), first, and then run "dnf install net-snmp net-snmp-utils" which will bring in all the necessary dependencies for you, automatically.

    All the best, Steve
