As said, this hints on a problem with the SNMP Connectivity, but we can't say why. It might be wrong settings, or something blocking the packets. Or that the sending host is not allowed to send SNMP Requests.

Hello,

This depends whether the physical device supports monitoring protocols that PRTG supports. Most common are SNMP, Netflow or WMI. PRTG is also able to monitor various types of servers (Webserver, FTP, DNS, SQL etc), but for actual hardware it would be necessary for the device to support one of the three mentioned "protocols" to be monitored by PRTG. You can test all three ways with one of our freeware networking tools (https://www.paessler.com/tools): SNMP Tester, WMI Tester and the Netflow Tester.
Please be aware that PRTG is only a monitoring not a managing tool.

best regards.

Hello again, Senao ECB 3220 using an Access Point. Supports the SNMP protocol. When I add a new network, SNMP settings, but the error report is doing. SNMPTester still get the same error when I test with the program. If I absolutely sure that would solve my problem if you are even more uğraşacağım. Too many programs I've tried and I do not want to waste time. I want to see something, Access Points, working, working ... That's it. best regards.

Well, which exact error do you get? If you can even 'scan' the target device with the SNMP Tester for Uptime for example, then there is very likely an issue with the SNMP Communication.

Thank you for your attention.

When I took the test error is as follows:

----------------------- New Test -----------------------
Paessler SNMP Tester 3.2
Device: pw.bestoil.com.tr

05.01.2012 17:15:34 (14 ms) : Start using SNMP V2c
05.01.2012 17:15:44 (10031 ms) : -------
05.01.2012 17:15:44 (10033 ms) : Value: No response (check: firewalls, routing, snmp settings of device, IPs, SNMP version, community, passwords etc) (SNMP error # -2003)
05.01.2012 17:15:44 (10035 ms) : Done
----------------------

I check the error report is being said. I was wondering what the SNMP Problem problems in daily life, 200 Access Point Can monütüre separately?

If so I'd appreciate a referral to the problem of SNMP.

Some locations have a firewall and the router does not in others. Firewall and router, and the locations which do not need to redirect ports.
