Set up anti-virus and HIPS SNMP messaging
If you use role-based administration:
- You must have the Policy setting - anti-virus and HIPS right to perform this task.
- You cannot edit a policy if it is applied outside your active sub-estate.
For more information, see Managing roles and sub-estates.
You can have SNMP messages sent to particular users if a virus or error is encountered on any of the computers in the group.
Warning These settings apply only to Windows computers.
- In the Policies pane, double-click the anti-virus and HIPS policy you want to change.
- In the Anti-virus and HIPS policy dialog box, click Messaging.
- In the Messaging dialog box, go to the SNMP messaging tab and select Enable SNMP messaging.
- In the Messages to send panel, select the types of event for which you want Sophos Endpoint Security and Control to send SNMP messages.
- In the SNMP trap destination text box, enter the IP address of the recipient.
- In the SNMP community name text box, enter the SNMP community name.
