Adding and Enabling an SNMP Service and SNMP Listeners on ProxySG or ASG

Products

• Advanced Secure Gateway Software - ASG
• ProxySG Software - SGOS

Issue/Introduction

There is one disabled SNMP listener defined by default on the appliance, which you can delete or enable, as needed. You can also add additional SNMP services and listeners. Although you can configure traps and informs to go out if all the SNMP listeners are deleted or disabled, configuring SNMP listeners sets up the UDP ports the appliance uses to listen for SNMP commands. The service ports set up for listening to SNMP requests are independent of the trap or inform addresses and ports specified for sending traps.

1. Select the Configuration > Services > Management Services tab.
