SNMP polling issue FVS336GV2

Hi all,

 

Working on setting up snmp polling from a server on the LAN polling the LAN address assigned to the firewall with no luck.

 

Few things I've noticed, I did a packet capture from the snmp management server and the firewall (capturing on the LAN interface), the packet capture from the snmp management server shows the getrequest sent out, and the capture from the firewall does not show it was received on the LAN interface, however here is the odd the part, I then enabled system logs to log all unicast traffic and seeing the snmp traffic from the management server to the firewall LAN address, but do not see a getresponse from the firewall in either case.

 

Hitting my head against the wall with this one, should be a 10 minute setup, any input is apprecaited!

    Hi kbnetrix,

     

    I'm not sure if this will help.  Can you try to update the firmware from v3.1.1-08 to v4.3.3-6 and check if it would help.  You may download firmware v4.3.3-6 here.  Be reminded that its best to perform a factory reset after upgrading the firmware to have a fresh start using the latest version of the firmware.

    Hi kbnetrix,

     

    Welcome to the community! :) 

     

    On the web-GUI of the FVS336Gv2, go to Security > Firewall > Attack Checks.  Under the LAN Security Checks portion, is there a check mark on the box that says "Disable Ping Reply on LAN Ports"?  If yes, kindly uncheck it then click Apply.  Observe if this resolves your concern.

     

     

    Regards,

      DaneA, thanks for the response, however neither of the LAN security options are checked.
