EX90 Multiple SNMP Community Strings

[anthony.chadwick]

Help.  Is it possible to enter multiple SNMP Community Strings or just one?  I can enter multiple Trap Hosts just fine, but I would like to have a different community string per trap host.

I am not aware that this is possible.

Anyhow, the SNMP hosts are not for traps! This option is just to limit the access to SNMP on the endpoint.

xConfiguration NetworkServices SNMP Host [1..3] Address 
Enter the address of up to three SNMP Managers. 
The system's SNMP Agent (in the codec) responds to requests from SNMP Managers (a PC program etc.), for example about system location and system contact. SNMP traps are not supported.

Thanks.  So I really wouldn't gain anything by having HPOV monitoring it.?.?

You could check if its alive, see the uptime, software version, endpoint type, serial number, ...

But but yes, no traps.

You get more out of the endpoint using TMS.

That itself has some SNMP trap towards a traphost but I do not recall that this ever worked really well for me.
