Community Polls

SNMPv1 and SNMPv2 use Community Polls to monitor servers. These polls can also be used to poll this Corente Services Gateway. This section lists all of the community polls that have been configured for this Corente Services Gateway. You can edit or delete any existing polls.

To add a new community poll, select Add.

Fill out the screen as follows:

  • User Group (Source Subnet): Select a User Group that will be allowed to poll this Corente Services Gateway with SNMP v1 or v2 "get" requests to its LAN IP address. You may have to configure special tubes to this Corente Services Gateway containing this User Group.

  • SNMP Community: If SNMP communities are in use in your implementation of SNMP, enter the community name for this Location in this field. An SNMP Community name functions like a password, because all queries to this Location must use this community name.

  • SNMP View: Select a view from this list that specifies what MIBs and MIB objects can be retrieved by the User Group (Source Subnet).

When you have completed these fields, click the OK button. This poll definition will be added to the Community Polls list.
