Install SNMP server on Windows for remote monitoring

To install SNMP server on Windows for remote monitoring use following steps:

  1. Go to Control Panel -> "Programs" -> "Turn Windows Feature On/Off"
  2. Install "Simple Network Management Protocol" and its entire sub-tree
  3. Go to Control Panel -> "System & Security" -> "Administrative Tools" -> "Services" Do not use Computer Management -> Services as various important tabs don't show up under Computer Management
  4. Double click on SNMP service
    1. Set contact and location
    2. Leave traps tab empty
    3. Under security add read-only community name 'public' and add IP address of server which would send SNMP requests (Eg Cacti server)
  5. Start the service. Make sure it is enable for automatic start
  6. From a linux machine try 
    snmpwalk -v 1 -c public <Windows-machine-IP> IP-MIB::ipAdEntIfIndex
    This should show some output. If it does not add exception for all programs, all protocols from given machine to selected Windows machine in Windows firewall.
