Knowledge Base FAQ Item #7050015

Q7050015: I want to monitor devices through SNMP. Is the Windows SNMP Service required to be installed and running?

No, the ActiveXperts SNMP Get check does NOT require the Windows SNMP Service to be installed and/or running. The check does not rely on this service.

If you need the Windows SNMP Service for other applications, ActiveXperts will still be able to perform checks through SNMP.
