Excellent, thanks for your response. The section was so deep into the options, I couldn't find it and the wording was a little different than I was expecting!
Thanks again!

Hi CrazyCDN,
Thank you for your post.
If you don't have SNMP Sensors on the corresponding device and still notice SNMP requests, I recommend disabling the System Information in PRTG. The System Information is a feature to see at a glance what is going on the systems you have in your network. This feature uses the SNMP protocol, among others. To disable this feature, please follow these steps:
Please note that you also able to disable the "System Information" on Root level. This way, the setting isn't inherited to any other group or device.
Best Regards,
