Hi at all,

Check if the system page shows SNMP as discovered protocol. If not check the community string, if it is different from public, do update the same in HPSIM.

if it helped, award me Kudos or Points. Thanks :)

Thanks for your update.

Yes the system page shows SNMP (see screenshot). Comunity is correct (public).

Is possibly that I don't see snmp on hp insight manager  because this machine is behind firewall?

On the firewall I opened snmp port (161) and so when I run the Hp agent and  run snmp trap I receive the trap on Hp insight manager.

 

thanks

Run a network sniffer on both ends i.e... the target and the CMS and send a test trap from the SMH and see if it gets through. Ensure the following:

 

  • CMS is set to accept traps from all hosts
  • Community and trap destination is correct on the SNMP agent being monitored
  • The HP agents of the correct version for that specific hardware are installed
If my post was helpful please award me Kudos! or Points :)
