Hi Team,

We are trying to enable the windows server 2016 standard server monitoring with snmp. We have followed below steps.

1) We have installed the snmp service in windows server 2016
2) in service.msc we select snmp service and added the community string in security option. find the attachment for this.
3) We are calling the service from nagios as below.

/usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_snmp -H testhost -o 'sysUpTime.0' -C 'public' -P 2c
CRITICAL - Plugin timed out while executing system call

Could you please help on this for the resolving issue.

You are only allowing connections from localhost

You either need to add your Nagios servers IP in the box, OR check the "Accept SNMP packets from any host" radio button
