Configure SNMP on an HPE Aruba switch

A Zynty account with Editor or Admin role

ArubaOS-CX: configure SNMP

On the newer ArubaOS-CX line (63xx, 64xx, 83xx), SNMP configuration lives under the standard config context.

configure terminal
snmp-server community zyntyRO
snmp-server system-location "Branch - Lyon"
snmp-server system-contact netops@company.com
end
write memory

2

Legacy ArubaOS-Switch (ProVision)

Older ProCurve-descended switches use a slightly different command set.

configure
snmp-server community "zyntyRO" operator
snmp-server contact "netops@company.com"
write memory

3

Add the switch in Zynty

Both platforms respond to standard SNMP v2c polling once configured. Use v2c unless your security policy mandates v3.
