SNMP
You can configure the FortiGate SNMP agent to report system information and send
traps (alarms or event messages) to SNMP managers. Using an SNMP manager, you
can access SNMP traps and data from any FortiGate interface or VLAN subinterface
configured for SNMP management access.
The FortiGate SNMP implementation is read-only. SNMP v1 and v2c compliant SNMP
managers have read-only access to FortiGate system information and can receive
FortiGate traps. To monitor FortiGate system information and receive FortiGate traps
you must compile Fortinet proprietary MIBs as well as Fortinet-supported standard
MIBs into your SNMP manager.
RFC support includes support for most of RFC 2665 (Ethernet-like MIB) and most of
RFC 1213 (MIB II) (for more information, see
“FortiGate MIBs” on page 107
).
