SNMP Configuration

[Rick_102]

How does one configure the SNMP community on a Windows 2000 server?

[Saskia Jean · Accepted solution]

Go into the Properties of the SNMP service in Services in Administrative tools in Control panel. Enter a community string, a trap destination and which host can do snmp get requests.

Also, with the later versions of the HP Agents you can do this from within IM.

From the device Home Page select SNMP Configuration.
I add the IM Server the the Trap Destinations for the public community.
I've also set up a Insight Manager Community name which I add as Read/Write in the Security Section.

Thank you Saskia. It worked great.
