Hello and sorry for my english,
I want to configure SNMP on fortigate FG500E firmware v7.2.11 (no VDOM). I did on other fortigate it was easy to configure but for this model, nothing works.
I create community and allow IP of my Zabbix server (i allow V2 snmp)
After that i allow SNMP on interface fortigate
I can ping fortigate on interface, but there is no response from fortigate. The interface is not Magement interface, it is that the problem ? not sure
i don't find the solution
Solved! Go to Solution.

If you use Trusted Hosts in user authentification on admin user, you have to add IP of snmp server
hi,
if you have trusted hosts enabled on your users, make sure that the ip of the zabbix is part in one of them.
otherwise, can you post the output for the commands,
show system snmp community
show system snmp sysinfo

I think this is a more complicated problem. i Also did debug, i can see request on fortigate but no response from fortigate
My zabbix IP is : 146.210.1.84
config system snmp sysinfo
set status enable
set description "Fortigate"
set location "DSI"
set append-index enable
end
config system snmp community

set name "ENS"
config hosts
