You need to configure SNMP based on the type of server you are using:
If a Dell server needs to be monitored using Dell OpenManage, then AppManager requires SNMP access to the Dell OpenManage computers to monitor hardware resources. Configure SNMP community string information in AppManager Security Manager to allow access to the Dell OpenManage computer.
On the SNMP tab of Security Manager, type the appropriate read-only community string value, such as private or public, for the Dell OpenManage computers you want to monitor.
If a Dell server needs to be monitored using iDRAC, then AppManager requires SNMP access to the Dell-iDRAC to monitor hardware resources. Configure SNMP community string information in AppManager Security Manager to allow access to the Dell IDRAC resources or by default it will use public as community string.
On the Custom tab of Security Manager, type the appropriate read-only community string value, such as private or public, for the Dell OpenManage computers you want to monitor.
