Discovery based on SNMP only

Hi,

 

Is it possible that HP SIM 7.0 discover devices only with SNMP?

The only ports witch are open on the firewall are UDP (161 /162).

I know that i can change the icmp by a tcp port but it's impossible to have a discovery with TCP or icmp in the network.

 

Thanks in advance,

Greg

Yes, SNMP should be sufficient as longs as you have the correct mibs registered

Re: Discovery based on SNMP only

Does the discovery task fail saying unreachable?

 

You could try this; 

 

Option -> Discovery

 

Above task, click on Configure general settings...

 

Check the box at the top; Automatically discover a system when a event is recived...

 

On the managed device, set snmp to point to CMS(SIM Server) and send a test event.

 

or 

 

I have set the ICMP to use 161/162 TCP and then discover then set it back.
