we are settinng up our own networking monitoring tools using Opmanager.

what is the proper way to configure snmpv3 for our fortigate firewall so that the Opmanager can recognize our firewalls ?

      Hi @yeowkm99,

      What is your firmware version? I found this document on an older version but let me know what is your current one and I can attach a newer version document https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/6.2.16/cookbook/457149/snmp-v3-users
