Look at the security panel of SNMP
configuration on one of the Windows systems - is there a restriction on the “Allow
SNMP packets from these hosts”?

Subject: [nv-l] NT and nonsnmp
Hello List,
AIX 5.2 ML6 , Netview 7.1.4 FP4
I am trying to reduce the number of nonsnmp devices. I
created a smartset and have placed all nonsnmp devices in it. I've contacted the
owners of the devices have reduced the number; slightly-- from 74 to 52, we are
getting there.
Several of these non-snmp devices are NT servers. The NT
Admin have enabled snmp, we are using the same community string but Netview
still can not do an snmpwalk or get, etc. Has anyone run into this? If so, how
do I fix it.
These are old servers and we may be replacing them within
the next 18 months. So, should I try fixing them or just let them be. I would
rather fix them but not sure what the problem is. We are talking about 10 NT
servers.
If we let them stay as nonsnmp, how can I get Netview just
to do a presence monitoring and not any snmp status..We would just care to know
if its up or down…
Thanks
Catalina M.
