Create an SNMP Protocol Credential in Insight RS
If your device's SNMP community string is set to public and your community access mode is read
only, Insight RS automatically associates an SNMPv1 protocol with your device. If you use a different
community string or use a nonstandard port, you must create an SNMPv1 protocol credential in the Insight
RS Console.
To configure SNMPv1 in the Insight RS Console, complete the following steps:
1. In a web browser, log on to the Insight RS Console.
2. In the Main Menu, select Discovery and click the Credentials tab.
3. From the Select and Configure Protocol drop-down list, select Simple Network Management
Protocol Version 1.
4. Click New. The New Credential dialog box appears.
5. Enter the Community String you have configured on your device.
6. Click Add.
Insight RS creates the protocol credential and it appears in the credentials table.
Discover the Device in the Insight RS Console

a. Click New.
