    Posted Feb 27, 2019 04:36 AM

    Hi All,

     

    Can i deploy SNMP collector probe in only having a Primary HUB?

     

    I need to get only 20 devices snmp traps to UIM. I saw that secondary hub need to be there but for 20 devices can i just deploy robot on a VM and add to the primary HUB?

     

    thanks

    If receiving traps is requirement, you shall use SNMPTD probe.

    If SNMPCollector is required to fulfill your requirement, you shall prepare dedicated secondary hub.

    Do not place SNMPCollector in any robots in under primary hub.

    Hi,

     

    Where do i need to deploy SNMPTD probe? In a seperate host or inside UIM?

     

    After creating that i need to allow port 161 and 162 to that seperate host or to UIM right?

     

    Please correct me.

     

    thanks

    Please determine your requirement first.

    If requirement is only getting traps, you can deploy SNMPTD on any UIM robots.

     

    If requirement is both collecting performance data from SNMP devices, and also getting traps from these SNMP devices

    Then it would be best using secondary hub to run both SNMPTD and SNMPCollector.

     

    SNMPTD uses UDP 161 to receive traps.
