The simplest way to do this is to remove any community-based
access control settings.   Either by editing the snmpd.conf file
or by manipulating the VACM tables.

You can reload the configuration without restarting the agent,
by issuing a SET request on UCD-SNMP-MIB::versionUpdateConfig.0

If you've got access control set up in the snmpd.conf file, then
you will need to edit this file (and re-load the config) in order
to change it.   Most configuration set via that file is "static", and
can't be changed via SET requests.
