Do you mean snmpi(8) --- as in http://www.tru64unix.compaq.com/docs/base_doc/DOCUMENTATION/V40G_HTML/MAN/MAN8/0326____.HTM That I believe is a part of the isode SNMP agent which is mentioned in http://www.snmp.com/FAQs/snmp-faq-part2.txt, but the site given in that FAQ (http://metalab.unc.edu/linux/pub/Linux/system/network/isode/) apears to have gone the way of all flesh. As far as I can tell, the isode SNMP agent is pretty much obsolete nowadays (it was mentioned on a FreeBSD mailing list back in 1997-ish back when FreeBSD 2.1.x was current). Although it started as a BSD-ish program (http://www.funet.fi/pub/unix/osi/isode-ports.txt) there apears not to be any sort of port on FreeBSD nowadays. It also seems to have nothing to do with http://www.isode.com/ any more. Even if you could dig up an old version somewhere on the net and get it installed on FreeBSD, you should think twice. There were some very nasty security bugs discovered last year that are apparently present in almost all SNMP implementations (http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2002-03.html) and you definitely want to install something that has had those bugs fixed. Nowadays, you'ld install one of the net-snmp ports (ports/net/net-snmp or ports/net/net-snmp4) to provide SNMP functionality, but I have no idea if your routing program would be able to integrate with either of those versions. There is no 'snmpi' program supplied with those packages, and I can't see (off hand) any program providing equivalent functionality.
