SNMP Support for Linux RMAs

Hi,

we wonder why there isn't any SNMP Testing via UNIX RMAs?! This would be an important feature for us as we will roll out almost 1000 Linux devices in the near future. When do you think KS-Soft will implement this quite important feature?

Regards,
Holger

I think its easy to use Shell Script test method and snmpget utility for such purpose

Hi,

what about encryption? Our company's technical revision & security policies do not allow unsecure traffic. Beside RMA, which encrypts traffic to the HostMonitor, is there another secure way for getting data out of the managed boxes? SNMPget isn't really a solution.

Don't see any problem here. All traffic between HostMonitor and RMA is encrypted, including request and results of Shell Script test method
