Configuration
AccelOps uses SNMP to discover and monitor this device. Make sure SNMP is enabled for the device as directed in its product documentation, then follow the instructions in Setting Access Credentials for Device Discovery to establish the connection between the device and AccelOps, and to initiate the device discovery process.

SNMP
AccelOps uses SNMP to discover and monitor this device. Make sure SNMP is enabled for the device as directed in its product documentation, then follow the instructions in Setting Access Credentials for Device Discovery to establish the connection between the device and AccelOps, and to initiate the device discovery process.
SNMP Trap
AccelOps processes events from this device via SNMP traps sent by the device. Configure the device to send send SNMP traps to AccelOps as directed in the device’s product documentation, and AccelOps will parse the contents.
