Overview
Sometimes, it is necessary to restrict SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) access to a particular subnet; this can limit the users that have access to the SNMP to just a few hosts or network administrators.
Process
-
Create a network object with the IP addresses of the hosts that should have access to the SNMP protocol.
-
Log in to the CLI (command-line interface) of the Exinda device.
-
Execute the following command:
snmp-server restrict <network object>
where <network object> is the subnet created in step 1.
