Orion Feature » SNMP Compatibility


  • Perform polling of SNMP values with SNMP v1, v2, v2c, and v3
  • Ensure SNMP v3 support for a high level of security
  • Receive SNMP traps
  • Set up custom SNMP ports

Orion securely polls SNMP values from any device that supports SNMP v1, v2, or v3. Support for SNMP v3 ensures a high-level of security for organizations that are sensitive to security breaches.

Additionally, Orion can receive SNMP traps, which are specially-configured notifications sent by network devices when unusual events are detected on that node. By collecting, processing, and forwarding these traps, Orion ensures that you are immediately alerted to issues that could cause performance degradation on the network. Orion can also monitor elements on custom SNMP ports.


"We tried CiscoWorks and it required too much management and configuration to be effective in our environment. I downloaded a trial of Orion and knew immediately it was what we had been looking for."

— Mark Stevens, Communications Manager, Oceaneering
