Well I passed my Office 365 exam in December so am officially a MCITP. Over the holidays I migrated all our VM's from ESXi 4 to Hyper-V 2012 it was easy enough bar our Exchange Box which had been P2V, V2V and V2V'd again and didn't play nice with the Hyper-V drivers.

Sep 09, 2019  Hey guys, I'm doing a report on SNMP and am trying to just get SNMP configured in VMWare on a Windows Server 2012 R2 VM and a Windows 10 VM. I'm not finding a whole lot online about the whole thing, so I figured I'd come here. Apr 30, 2015  This video shows a procedure of installation and configuration of SNMP service on a computer running the Windows 2012 operating system. TUTORIAL: https://tec.

How To Enable Snmp Service In Windows Server 2012 R2

SNMP Security Configuration. Open Windows Services and locate service called SNMP Service then open service properties. Click on Security tab. In Accepted community names, click add to add the required community name and rights. Select Accept SNMP packets from these hosts option and then click Add to add Hostname, IP Address of the Monitoring Server. Click OK and then restart SNMP service. Note: SNMP Communities are case sensitive. Install and configure SNMP service in Windows machines. Note: SNMP Service is deprecated since the Windows Server 2012 R2 version. Of course, if you are going to install SNMP on multiple endpoints (computers, servers, VMs, etc.), then it would be preferable to do so remotely using PowerShell and/or Group Policy.

I decided to go with the free Hyper-V 2012 edition and found it straight forward enough one step that took a little figuring was enabling SNMP for our monitoring software (When I have time I'll go the System Center Route!)
For ease I enabled RDP to the Hyper-V host you can do this from the console or via iLO or whatever out of band management you use.
Open a command prompt Ctrl-SHift-Esc and New task etc.
Type the following
dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:SNMP
Next connect to the host using computer management from a work station or server with a GUI and configure the service as normal
All done

When we use a monitoring tool in an enterprise environment, monitoring data of Windows and Windows Server machines is usually done through WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation). However, there may be cases that you may need to use the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP).

SNMP is already installed in versions prior to Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012. However, in Windows 8, Windows 10, Windows Server 2012, and Windows Server 2016 will need to install it. Note: SNMP Service is deprecated since the Windows Server 2012 R2 version.

Of course, if you are going to install SNMP on multiple endpoints (computers, servers, VMs, etc.), then it would be preferable to do so remotely using PowerShell and/or Group Policy.

Check if SNMP is installed

Before we get started, it’s a good idea to first check if the SNMP service is already installed and running on Windows 10 or Windows Server 2016. This can be done very easily through PowerShell by typing the following command.

If the corresponding service does not appear, then it is not installed. Similarly, on Windows Server, you can type the following command.

Alternatively, you can open the Services or Task Manager window and search for the SNMP Service. If it does not exist then it is not installed.

Install SNMP in Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016

In Windows 10, installing SNMP Service is done through the Add Windows Features window. As shown in the figure below, check Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and press OK.

In Windows Server 2016, SNMP is installed through Server Manager. Start the Add Roles and Features wizard, click on Next until you reach the Features section where you will need to check the SNMP Service option. Continue on completing the wizard by pressing Next and Finish.

Installing SNMP is easier with a PowerShell one-liner on Windows Server 2016.

Configure SNMP on Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016

In both Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016, the SNMP setting is configured through the service properties window. So, open the services.msc window, find the SNMP Service, and open Properties.

Here, on the General tab, be sure to select Automatic in the Startup Type section so that it is always available even after a restart of the computer or server.

On the Agent tab, be sure to select all the services required by the monitoring tool to collect the data.

On the Security tab, click the Add button to add the community string, read-only, and the hosts from where SNMP packages will be accepted.

That’s it. Now, the installation and configuration of the SNMP service in Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016 are complete.
