How to enable SNMP?

Hi all,
I have installed Mikrotik 5.9 (trial version for 24 hours),
i want to enable the SNMP service , can any one tell me the procedure how to enable the SNMP service ???
and How should i check whether SNMP service is enabled or not ???

/snmp print - and look if it is enabled or not :slight_smile:
/snmp set enabled=yes - enables SNMP
/snmp community print - shows, what SNMP communities you have. By default it is “public” with read-only access from all IP addresses (0.0.0.0/0)
Then - you can just run snmpwalk to the IP address of your MikroTik - and see what values are available :slight_smile:.

@dasiu, thanks for ur reply,
i have done same thing but when seen in

/ip services it is not showing the snmp service enabled .


[sudhir@MikroTik] /ip service> print
Flags: X - disabled, I - invalid

NAME PORT ADDRESS CERTIFICATE

0 telnet 23
1 ftp 21
2 www 80
3 ssh 22
4 X www-ssl 443 none
5 api 8728
6 winbox 8291


Here i should get SNMP enabled right ????
but i dint get !!

No, you don’t set snmp in /ip services. Probably because SNMP uses UDP, and in /ip services - you have TCP ports, that are open :slight_smile:. Just /snmp set enabled=yes - and that’s all!

Hi dasiu,

[sudhir@MikroTik] > /snmp print
enabled: yes
contact:
location:
engine-id:
trap-community: public
trap-version: 1

It is showing enabled for me …

But when i tried to connect it through the SNMP Managers like Mrtg and other SNMP Managers i was unable to connect to it … I was getting request timed out exceptions …
