SNMP Configuration

This module is currently unavailable and will be available in future versions. The documentation below is provided for reference only.

SNMP Configuration lets operators browse and maintain SNMP-related configuration in the Angular Console. Because changes can affect monitoring integrations and production behavior, always work in small steps and follow the safety flow (export → dry-run → import).

When to use this module

Use SNMP Configuration when you need to:

  • review existing configuration entries,

  • search/filter to find a specific entry,

  • export a snapshot as a backup before changes,

  • import bulk changes from a prepared file (with mandatory dry-run),

  • edit individual entries (if permitted),

  • verify what changed after an import or edit.

Prerequisites

  • Some deployments require selecting a Client Type before data loads.

  • Confirm your permissions:

    • VIEWER — browse and export.

    • EDITOR / ADMIN — edit and import.

  • If prerequisites are missing, the module may show an empty/guarded state and disable write actions.

Navigation path

  • Angular Console → SNMP Configuration

  • Before changing anything, verify the current context (environment, breadcrumbs, and Client Type if shown).

Common tasks

Browse and search

  1. Open SNMP Configuration.

  2. If the page provides filters or search, use them to narrow the list.

  3. Open an entry to review its details.

What you should see:

  • a list/table of entries,

  • a details view (dialog/drawer/panel) with entry fields,

  • read-only state for VIEWER accounts.

Export a snapshot

  1. Open SNMP Configuration.

  2. Click Export (or the equivalent snapshot action).

  3. Save the downloaded file as your backup.

For details, see: Export a Snapshot.

Import with dry-run (mandatory)

Import is the safest way to apply many changes at once. Always follow the workflow: export → dry-run → apply.

  1. Export a snapshot first (recommended): Export a Snapshot.

  2. Click Import (or the equivalent import action).

  3. Select import mode if available (MERGE / REPLACE).

  4. Upload the prepared file.

  5. Wait for dry-run results to complete.

  6. Review the plan (created / updated / deleted) and any warnings/errors.

  7. Confirm the import only when the plan matches your intent.

Import safety checklist

  1. Confirm you are in the correct environment.

  2. Confirm your selected context (for example, client type) matches the file.

  3. Export a snapshot before changes.

  4. Run Dry-run and review:

    • errors (must be resolved),

    • warnings (understand impact),

    • create/update/delete counts.

  5. If using REPLACE, confirm you accept deletions shown in the dry-run plan.

  6. Apply import and immediately verify by refreshing and re-opening the affected entries.

If REPLACE is available, it can delete entries that are not present in the imported file. Treat large delete counts as a stop signal until you confirm the file is complete and the context is correct.

Edit safely (EDITOR / ADMIN)

  1. Open the entry you want to change.

  2. Click Edit.

  3. Update fields carefully.

  4. Click Save.

  5. Refresh and re-open the entry to confirm the persisted state.

Export a snapshot before significant manual edits so you can audit changes and recover if needed.

After-change verification checklist

  • Confirm you are in the intended environment.

  • Confirm the selected Client Type (if applicable).

  • Click Refresh (or re-open the module) to load the latest state.

  • Re-open changed entries and confirm values match your intent.

  • Spot-check a few unchanged entries to ensure no unintended changes.

  • If you imported, confirm the dry-run plan matches what actually changed.

  • (Optional) Export a new snapshot for audit: Export a Snapshot.

Troubleshooting

No data shown

Confirm prerequisites (for example, required context/Client Type selection) and clear overly narrow filters/search queries.

I can’t edit or import

You are likely signed in as VIEWER. Editing and import are available only for EDITOR or ADMIN.

Dry-run shows errors

The file may not match the expected structure. Start from an export snapshot, apply your edits, and re-run dry-run.

Dry-run shows many deletions

You may be using REPLACE (if available), or the file is incomplete for the current context. Re-check the selected context and regenerate the file from an export snapshot.

Save is disabled or blocked

Fix validation errors shown in the UI, then try saving again.
