Hello,

A great place to start is with this KB: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/4CD3625A939A77DE852564050047D3BD?OpenDocument.  You also might want to continue to search the NI site for examples with the TCP/IP protocol, and see if anyone else has worked with SNMP.

For example:

Hi Santosh -

The best references to get started with the SNMP Toolkit is through the documentation/manual/examples provided by the developers of the toolkit.  Here is a link to the reference manual for the  SNMP Toolkit Manual.

I've searched through the NI databases, and we don't have any examples available for the SNMP Toolkit.  I would contact SNMP Toolkit Technical Support with specific support questions regarding this toolkit.

Hopefully, someone with some experience using this SNMP Toolkit might be able to provide some insight on configuring the applications.
