Hi everybody,

What kind of SNMP requests does HostMonitor use? Is it possible to:

1. Change the SNMP port of monitored device?
2. Choose the method type -- "get" or "getnext"?

WBR,

HostMonitor uses GET request only. HostMonitor uses standard API (mgmtapi.dll) to perform SNMP request, unfortunately this API does not allow to change port. Of course you can try to change port in the system file %SystemRoot%system32driversetcservices, but it will have effect for whole system.
