Description

Agent file

The file where the configurations of the single SNMP agents are saved. This file complies with the SNMP configuration file and thus cannot be changed in this dialog.

The zenon internal Net address of the agents. Complies with the net address in the variable definition. You can use this Net address e.g. for logically grouping your variables.

Agent name

Agent IP address

The IP address of the single network participants/agents. Here either the IP address or the computer name (requiring a properly working name resolution) can be used.

Agent community default (public)

The access identification of the agent. As a default always "public". (read only)

A community name serves as a password that is defined for one or more SNMP hosts.
