      <short>SNMP</short>
      <description>SNMP protocol</description>
      <port protocol="udp" port="161"/>
      </service>

   2. Reload your firewall for checking any error

      firewall-cmd --reload

   3. Add the service to your public zone

      firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-service snmp --permanent
