SNMP don't response traffic

Hi Everyone,

I have the problem with configure SNMP. I use a pair fortigates model: 201F, version 7.2.7. I config HA mode Active-Passive. So I want to monitor 2 fortigates, I have enable snmp agent and config community snmp v2, config interface administrator access service: snmp, ping, https. Test ping from NMS to Fortigate is successful but when NMS send SNMP get but not receive response packet from Fortigate. Can you help me ? Thanks a lot.

The debug shows the route lookup is happening on vsys_hamgmt vdom, which is default vdom when ha-mgmt is enabled. The interface port5 will be part of root (default vdom) and thats why the SNMP packet is getting dropped. Can you enable "set ha-direct enable" under SNMP community as below and test?

 

 

 

# show system snmp community
config system snmp community
edit 1
set name "hostmonitor"
config hosts
edit 1
set ip 10.5.0.36 255.255.255.255
set ha-direct enable ------>>>>Here
next
end
next
end

 

Regards,
Suraj

Hello @HungDT ,

 

 Do you have a trusted host configuration on your admin users?

 

If you say yes, can you add the IP address of the nms tool to the trusted host configuration? It doesn't matter which administrator account you configure. You can configure it to anyone.

Hi @ozkanaltas,

it means restric login to trusted hosts on Administrators.

Hi @HungDT ,

 

If you don't have a trusted host configuration on your admin accounts, you don't need to configure it. This is only valid for those with a trusted host configuration.

 

Can you run these debug commands via CLI? While running these commands can you poll your device from the NMS tool? After running these commands can you collect output and share it with us? 

 

 

diag debug application snmp -1
diag debug enable

 

 

However, if you have not configured SNMP Agent settings within the SNMP configuration, Fortigate may not respond to snmp queries.

Hi @HungDT ,

 

Can you try to configure SNMP Agent information like that or real information?
