How to disable SNMP for VMAX service processor

Issue / Vulnerability:: "It is possible to obtain the default community name of the remote SNMP server.

An attacker may use this information to gain more knowledge about the remote host, or to change the configuration of the remote system (if the default community allows such modifications).
Output: The remote SNMP server replies to the following default community
string :

public"
Suggested Solution:: Disable the SNMP service on the remote host if you do not use it.
Either filter incoming UDP packets going to this port, or change the default community string.

Hello DDSabale,

Do you have server with solution enabler installed?    With a Symmetrix system SNMP is configured & managed using solution enabler, Unisphere for VMAX , or ProSphere. https://dell.to/2MOUq2d

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Yes, I have installed Solution Enabler on Windows machine. Unisphere is also configureed on same machine.

Currently SNMP is not configured on Unisphere, I want to disable SNMP settings of VMAX service processor only. I have tried to access VMAX service processor  on Chrome browser and its redirected to remotely anywhere and its asking for username and password.  We don't know the credentials. Could you please help me with default credentials.

Is there any command to  change SNMP settings of VMAX Service processor?
