Improve Monitor MongoDB With SNMP on Linux page

      https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/monitor-with-snmp/

      Please improve the following sentence:

      The configuration filename is tool-dependent. For example, when using net-snmp the configuration file is snmpd.conf.

      I may interpret this sentence that many distributions possibly use /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf instead of the suggested file name /etc/snmp/mongod.conf.

      This may be confusing, because MongoDB if configured with the snmp-agent configuration parameter will use that configuration file /etc/snmp/mongod.conf while at the same time you may have a snmpd daemon (such as Net-snmp) using /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file as SNMP master configuration file.

      I would recommend clarifying this in the docs page.
