Enabling the SNMP Client protocol - Industrial IoT 5.0.1.1 | BACnet | Modbus | OPC Client | SNMP Manager

Before you can enroll a SNMP device in your system, you must enable the SNMP Client protocol on the Industrial IoT plugin role.

1. From the Config Tool home page, open the Plugins task.
2. From the entity browser, select the Industrial IoT plugin role and click the Protocols tab.
3. In the Protocols list, turn on the SNMP Client switch.
4. In the SNMP Client section to the right, configure the following settings and click Apply.

   UDP port range

   The range of outgoing ports used to poll SNMP devices. A wider range of ports allows Security Center to poll a greater number of devices at the same time.

   Polling interval

   The period at which Security Center polls the SNMP device. The default value is 60 seconds.

   Timeout

   The time (in seconds) given to a device to respond to a request sent out by the Industrial IoT plugin role. The default is 30 seconds. If you get a lot of expired requests, increase this number.
