If after creation you are having issues monitoring the system, please see troubleshooting at the bottom of this document. Before you start, you will need to come up with the following information for SNMP to work SNMPv3 User Name SNMPv3 View Name SNMPv3 Group Name In this example I have simplified it to easily understand when you are working in a User, Group, or View. This document is color coded to easily see which fields are available and the description of the fields.
This document was designed to get the device monitored securely and to troubleshoot any Issues. Most Devices support this information by utilizing the following commands: snmp-server location snmp-server contact Ģ Configuring SNMPv2: Cisco/ Brocade/ Dell: Read Only: snmp-server community RO Read/Write: snmp-server community RW Note: SNMP Read Write is only used in NCM and VNQM Configuring SNMPv3: This is for Basic setup for SNMPv3. This information is displayed in the Node Details Resource in the Node Details Page. Common SNMP Fields that Solarwinds Products read: SNMP allows you to set the location of the device, and the Point of Contact for the devices. This will be covered in our SNMPv3 Configuration area of this document. If you have SNMPv3 and you are not seeing Wireless or Topology information, you will need to modify the configuration to allow the data to be seen. SNMPv3 allows you to setup a higher security of a Username, Authentication Password, and an encryption password What additional Configuration steps do I need to take for full SNMPv3 access? SNMPv3 is very different from other versions in that it requires the device to open additional MIB and OID access to gain additional details. Why should I use SNMPv3 over SNMPv2? SNMPv1 and SNMPv2 traffic data is sent in plain text from the devices to the Network Management Server. Both of these apply only to Cisco Devices. VoIP and Network Quality Manager (VNQM) needs, but is not required, order to configure IP SLA operations on devices. Network Configuration Manager (NCM) needs RW in order to read configurations when the configuration is pulled via SNMP. When to use Read/Write Read/Write (RW) is an additional function of SNMP that allows you to set configurations through SNMP. This will be a live document on Thwack, and is accessible from Quick Links: Setup SNMPv2 Setup SNMPv3 Adding SNMPv3 Device in Solarwinds Web Console Setup SNMPv3 Traps Setup SNMv3 Wireless Setup SNMPv3 Network Topology Troubleshooting SNMPv3 Understanding SNMP: When to use Read Only SNMP Read Only (RO) is a basic security we recommend to ensure that users are not able to make changes to devices. 1 This document will assist you in setting up SNMP v2 and SNMPv3 on Network Devices.
