SNMP (HIAB only)

^{Last updated: 2019-02-19}

Purpose

This article provides set up information on the SNMP integration.

Introduction

The SNMP integration allows the HIAB appliance to send system and security events to an external monitoring system using the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). By configuring this integration, the appliance can generate SNMP traps that notify a network management platform when specific events occur within the vulnerability management environment. These events can include scan activity, system notifications, or other operational alerts generated by the HIAB.

This integration is useful for organizations that rely on centralized monitoring tools to track the health and activity of their infrastructure. By forwarding events through SNMP, the HIAB appliance can be incorporated into existing network monitoring and incident management workflows. This improves operational visibility and allows security or network teams to detect important scanning events or system issues in real time through their established monitoring systems.
