Configuring The SNMP Agent On Systems Running
VMware ESXi
Server Administrator generates Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps in response to changes in the status of
sensors and other monitored parameters. Configure one or more trap destinations on the system running Server Administrator
to send SNMP traps to a management station.
Server Administrator supports SNMP traps on VMware ESXi but does not support SNMP Get and Set operations because
VMware ESXi does not provide the required SNMP support. You can use the VMware vSphere CLI to configure VMware ESXi to
send SNMP traps to a management application.
NOTE:
For more information about using the VMware vSphere CLI, see the VMware support site at vmware.com/
support.
