Configuring SNMP Connectivity
This template lets you configure an SNMP connectivity template whose parameter values can then be applied system-wide (globally). The template facilitates more effective network management. SNMP/HTTP templates are the default profile values for each defined tenant. There is a single default profile that is used for SNMP and HTTP and is applied to devices added to the Auto-detection region.
➢ | To configure an SNMP Connectivity template: |
1. | Access the Global scope (see Global and Tenant Scope). |
2. | Open the SNMP Connectivity screen (System > Configuration > Templates > SNMP Connectivity). |
