Troubleshooting
This section lists solutions for a few typical issues that you might encounter while using the SNMP service.
Third-party application can not connect to the SNMP service
Make sure that SNMP service is installed and configured as described in Configuring SNMP service for using with Kaspersky Security Center section.
SNMP service is working, yet the third-party application cannot get any values
Allow SNMP agent tracing and make sure that a non-empty file is created. This means that the SNMP agent is properly registered and functioning. After this, allow connections from the SNMP service in the side service settings. If a side service operates on the same host as the SNMP agent, the list of IP addresses should contain either the IP address of that host or loopback 127.0.0.1.
An SNMP service that communicates with agents should be running in Windows. You can specify the paths to SNMP agents in the Windows Registry via regedit.
- For Windows 10:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SNMP\Parameters\ExtensionAgents
- For Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SNMP\Parameters\ExtensionAgents
You can allow SNMP agent tracing via regedit as well.
- For 32-bit systems:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\KasperskyLab\Components\34\1093\1.0.0.0\SNMP\Debug
- For 64-bit systems:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\KasperskyLab\Components\34\1093\1.0.0.0\SNMP\Debug
"TraceLevel"=dword:00000004
"TraceDir"="C:\\"
Values do not match the statuses of Administration Console
In order to reduce the load at Administration Server, the caching of values is implemented for the SNMP agent. The latency between the cache being actualized and the values being changed on the Administration Server may cause mismatches between the values returned by the SNMP agent and the actual ones. When working with third-party applications, you should consider that possible latency.
