SNMP Profile

FortiLAN Cloud supports SNMP access to FortiAPs such as sending queries and receiving traps. To assign an SNMP profile to a FortiAP, see FortiAP Platform Profile.

Note: A FortiAP can be associated with a platform profile linked to a configured SNMP profile, even if the SNMP admin access is disabled in the AP settings.

2. In the Menu bar, navigate to Configuration >Device Management > SNMP Profile.

4. Enter a unique name for the SNMP profile.
