In the infrastructure that monitoring exists a firewall that this blocking port UDP 161 and only allows tcp 161, exists the procedure to change my monitoring in PRTG over tcp 161? Its very important to have ready this monitoring for my client.

Thanks for the support

Hi,
as you want to monitor SNMP I'm afraid it is not possible to change the protocol to TCP as the implementation of SNMP requires UDP. Sorry.
Best regards

Hi

On the Configuration Group - Data of access for equipment SNMP specify port 161 (implicit over udp), in the network that monitoring for my devices, the port tcp 161 this opening, by such reason I require to monitor on tcp 161, in order to confirm, It is possible in PRTG to change to TCP 161?

Sorry no. PRTG can only so SNMP via UDP.
