Hello,

the IP address that is trying to access your switch is 10.x.x.x, is that a (known) address within your network ?

[giridar]

yes it is a known one, (could you edit that Ip to something else)

Hello,

which user is connected to this IP address ? Or what system ? Is that a legitimate SNMP access attempt to the switch ?

[giridar]

thank you, i have figured it out
