The monitor agent will use SNMP service to gather network information e.g. traffic, memory usage, disk spaces.

To Enable SNMP on Windows Server, please follow steps below :

• 1. Open Windows Power Shell, run command "Add-WindowsFeature SNMP-Service" to install SNMP services.
• 2. Open "Administrative Tools->Services", double click on "SNMP Service". on security page, input community name and IP of the monitor agent. (You may skip this step, if you server is domain joined and group policy have been setup).

For other device e.g. switch, firewall, please follow user manual to enable SNMP service. Remember to allow the monitor agent IP to access SNMP.
