AppManager uses SNMP queries to access remote Communication Manager servers and to enable the functionality of NetIQ SNMP Trap Receiver. Before discovering Communication Manager resources, enter SNMP community string information into AppManager Security Manager.
AppManager for Avaya Communication Manager supports SNMP versions 1 and 2. Configure Avaya Communication Manager 6.3.100 and 7.x with read-write SNMP community strings to give it access to all SNMP objects. If you configure it with read-only access, you will receive a warning and only a partial discovery will occur.
Configure SNMP community string information for each Communication Manager you want to monitor.
