Configuring the connection of the SNMP manager to SNMP agents

You must specify the settings for connecting the SNMP manager to SNMP agents installed on your equipment, such as CPE devices. In Kaspersky SD-WAN, the Zabbix proxy server acts as the SNMP manager.

The specified settings are used for all SNMP agents. This saves time and avoids the need to configure individual pieces of equipment. The exception is when connection settings are locally overridden on the equipment.

To configure the connection of the SNMP manager to SNMP agents:

1. In the menu, go to the Infrastructure section.

   The SD-WAN infrastructure management page is displayed. By default, the Network resources tab is selected, which displays the table of SD-WAN Controllers.

2. Click Management next to the SD-WAN Controller and in the drop-down list, select Configuration menu.

   This opens the SD-WAN Controller configuration menu. By default, you are taken to the Controller nodes section, which displays a table of Controller nodes.

3. Go to the SNMP section.

   A table of traps is displayed.

4. In the upper part of the page, under Manager parameters, click Edit.
5. This opens a window; in that window, in the Address field, enter the IP address or host name of the equipment on which the SNMP agent is installed, in the <transport protocol>:<IP address or host name>/<port number> format. For example, you can enter udp:192.168.2.0/24.
6. In the Community field, enter the SNMP community string. The community string is used as a password which the SNMP manager uses to connect to SNMP agents. The default value is public, which provides read-only access. We recommend changing the default to a more secure and unique community string to ensure reliable communication between your SNMP manager and SNMP agents.

   You must specify the same community string when configuring the SNMP manager connection to SNMP agents and when creating traps.

7. Click Save.
