Enabling SNMP Access On Remote Hosts (Windows Server 2003 Only)

Windows Server 2003, by default, does not accept SNMP packets from remote hosts. For systems running Windows Server 2003, you must configure the SNMP service to accept SNMP packets from remote hosts if you plan to manage the system by using SNMP management applications from remote hosts.

To enable a system running the Windows Server 2003 operating system to receive SNMP packets from a remote host:

  1. Open the Computer Management window.
  2. Expand the Computer Management icon in the window, if necessary.
  3. Expand the Services and Applications icon and click Services.
  4. Scroll down the list of services until you find SNMP Service, right-click SNMP Service, and then click Properties.

    The SNMP Service Properties window appears.

  5. Click the Security tab.
  6. Select Accept SNMP packets from any host, or add the remote host to the Accept SNMP packets from these hosts list.
