Since you are using localhost, the above 'snmp_access' line should be fine.

You may want to add "49,9" to debug_options in squid.conf. Then watch
cache.log. That should show you if Squid is actually receiving the
SNMP queries, and whether or not they are allowed. You might also
want to use tcpdump/ethereal to look for SNMP packets.
